Hello,
my question refers to the Library Expert Lite 2013 (I know it's an older Version). Is there a way to create a footprint for a single row pin header which pins are not centered in reference to the plastic? The following datasheet shows a example of such a pin header. With reference to the short side of the plastic, the pin row is not in the middle. http://media.hr-connector.com.tw/A2542WV-XPNXXXXX01X.pdf Best regards Guido |

Not in the free Library Expert Lite. But certainly in Library Expert Pro. |

Hello Tom,
thank you very much for your reply. For me (student) the Pro version is a bit too expensive. So I have to correct the offset by myself. Is it common to include this offset in the naming of the footprint? If yes, where should I insert the offset in the following example of a 6 pin header?

For all connectors, I would highly recommend this naming convention as it's perfect for connectors. MfrName_MfrPartNumber 3M_Part Number AGILENT_Part Number AIRBORNE_Part Number AMPHENOL_Part Number AVX_Part Number BERG_Part Number BLOCKMASTER_Part Number CUI_Part Number JOHNSON_Part Number ERNI_Part Number FCI_Part Number FUJITSU_Part Number HARTING_Part Number HIROSE_Part Number IEH_Part Number ITT_Part Number JALCO_Part Number JWT_Part Number JST_Part Number KEYSTONE_Part Number KYCON_Part Number LEMO_Part Number MILL-MAX_Part Number MOLEX_Part Number NEUTRIK_Part Number PHOENIX_Part Number PULSE_Part Number RIA_Part Number SAMTEC_Part Number SIEMENS_Part Number SPEEDTECH_Part Number STEWART_Part Number SULLINS_Part Number SWITCHCRAFT_Part Number TE_Part Number YAMAICHI_Part Number

Hello Tom,
thank you for your hint. Now, as I read your answer I remember that this solution is described in the document "Footprint Naming Convention - Non-standard Component" which can be downloaded form your site. http://www.pcblibraries.com/account/user/memberdownloads.asp Best regards Guido |
