![]() ![]() I find that being hands on w/ the library forces the brain to get into a state of asking really good questions. There are often lots of details that you should be aware of for complicated parts that liability cannot generally be shifted to a 3rd party. I argue that for anything greater that 64pins, one should be intimately involved with the pinouts/symbols, etc. Less that that, I can generally create the part from the datasheet faster than validating someone else’s footprint and symbol.Īlso, for anything of reasonable complexity, I am really looking for the sub circuit/configuration, etc. For large pin count (>64) I will do a bit of searching to see if someone has the symbol already. From there, I also bring them into my own library where I can sanitize parameters, etc. I have used Celestial libs indirectly to get some footprints and schematic symbols. With that in mind, parts search actually is something I only do on the web, not in my libraries. The exception is when starting from scratch. Even if I am changing the functionality, it is always from the starting point of a known working configuration. ![]() All of the value is in the bootstrapping of a part, DC-DC converter, etc. The only times I pull a part from a library is whenĪ.) its a passive or a simple two/three terminal partĪfter that, if I reuse a part, it is only via copying a known working configuration. So, something I have observed after about 20+ years… What is important is not parts search, rather design/sub circuit search. IntLibs for that matter, what is your component search workflow? ![]()
