Version 25.05 was just released!!

Fixes & Enhancements:

  • Free Calculator: 
    • Turned on the local options for Terminal Density Level
  • Unique Footprints:
    • The Silkscreen Ref Des was not generated
  • FP Designer
    • Pad Stack Designer:
      • Some display and functional issues when using non-millimeter units
      • Through Hole roundoffs now works for all unit types (mm, mils. etc.)
      • New feature for setting Units for pad stack dimensions and pad stack names
    • Pad Stack Manager generated names not following Design Option for pad stack name units
  • Calculators:
    • DPAK - updated the calculation for the large thermal pad
    • DPAK - 2-Pin version throwing an exception
    • SON - the 'G' pad stack dimension value was assigned to the longer pin 1 and not the other pins
    • SON - the mfr.'s footprint showing the wrong dimension value for 'G'
    • DFN 3-Pin - 'G' and 'G1' pad stack dimension values were swapped
    • DFN 4-Pin - not showing a trim warning when the 'G1' dimension is trimmed
    • QFN - thermal pad 'r' and 'c' cells that were blank were unintentionally populated with 0.00 when opening a footprint
    • PQFN & PSON mfr.'s footprint reference drawing erroneously showing a long pin 1' x 1' option
    • Chip Array, 4-Sided - the 'G1' pad stack dimension value was 6 places and not following the Design Options
