   R-PDSO-G8

I am trying to make a package of the SMD
IC LM2903 TI.

I am using the data sheet “D (R-PDSO-G8)
(would give page number, but TI didn’t number them) 

My template in Library Expert is “Small
outline pkg (SOIC, SOP)”. I am using this one because It looked close to the PDSO. However,
I get the dreaded “Line 59 error” in Eagle upon attempt to transport by script.

The error reported by Eagle is “Invalid
SMD size 19.8882 7.1628 invalid range is 0…13.107mm”

Should I be using a different package
template?

	There is already a Texas Instruments "D (R-PDSO-G8)" in the SM FPX file. There are over 800 different Texas Instruments footprints in that library. Just open it in the Library Editor and search for D (R-PDSO-G8).

	yes, You are correct! My project deadline is coming close, and in a rush I only looked in the "TH" library for one. Lesson learned. I look forward to the time when I can explore all that PCB can do. Thanks for the reply and lesson. David
