When you have different +/- tolerances, enter the Min/Max data instead of Nominal + Tolerance. When you enter the Min/Max data, a new Nominal dimension will be auto generated. The Nominal = the value between the Minimum and Maximum. This will also affect the Footprint Name, which uses the Nominal dimensions. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |

SOT-89 has an irregular shape pin 2 and it's a different shape and size for every mfr. Library Expert cannot auto-generate irregular pad shapes yet as this requires associated copper poly shapes. We manually create SOT-89 and upload them to POD. Check the mfr.'s Diodes and NXP for the Case Code SOT89 or SOT-89 and download those parts. If you have a new SOT-89, we'll be glad to build it for $5 and share it with everyone else for free download. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |
