Package Sizes

amerdsp

Are package sizes the same for all components? What I mean is 0805

capacitor would be the same size as 0805 ferrite bead?  The reason I ask

is that the rlc library has packages labeled C0805.  I was wondering if

it is specific for a capacitor.

 

Thank you

    The footprint is identical, however there sometimes are slightly

    different tolerances - and especially different heights. So when it

    comes to automated assembly, you often need to distinguish between

    different packages (not for EAGLE, but for the assembly machine).
