Hello everyone,
As a designer of a PCB / Schematic Design tool I am continually asked for more libraries. However, except for a few exceptions I am finding it exceedingly difficult for anyone to give me up there "list" of most common or useful components.
We (PCB123) are getting ready to create thousands of new schematic symbols and PCB footprints (land patterns) but we would greatly appreciate the communities input to help us put this list together. PCB123 is used by all technology / experience levels from Tube amps to High Speed RF Designs.
I will be continually monitoring this group as well as a forum I have created specifically for this process:
We will be releasing a whitepaper that opens up our library format to third-party developers that will make it easy create new symbols and footprints. We are also open to partnering with other developers such as
Any and all feedback will be appreciated.
Thank you,
Todd Clifton, PCB123 Product manager
