resistor array lbr

Question

I'm new to eagle, just learning on the educational version for my first board layout.

I have a very simple board, but I would like to use a 6 pin SIP resistor array, Bourns is the brand I'm currently eyeing. So how do I find a bussed resistor array in the eagle library? I've looked and don't see one, I've looked on Bourns website and the library they have doesn't have one in it.

Thanks in advance for helping the newbie.

Hi Brandon, You can search in the usual add component dialog, by typing the part number or (say) array or SIP* or SIL* to see what comes up. I did a search for SIL* and saw some resistor arrays, perhaps one of them may help you. However, bear in mind that there are hundreds of thousands (or millions?) of different components available, and not all will have a prepared EAGLE part. Therefore it is important to know how to create your own parts based on the information in the datasheet. I can't create a single board generally (not just with EAGLE, but with other CAD packages too) without creating a few parts - it can be considered part of the PCB design process. See the EAGLE user manual to see how to create your own parts.

 For the wire through holes do I just use a "via" that has its hole on the opposite side of the two layer board isolated? 
 I would place a part on the schematic and PCB for that (e.g. a 'pin header' (searchable in the add components dialog).
