  • SDIP IC to DIP conversion

    Hi Everyone (potential experts and kind advice givers), Recently I started an 8-bit computer home-brew project based on the 64 pin SDIP version of the Z80180. Which I didn't think of at ordering is that the CPU isn't going to fit any of my proto boards…

  • Which library or vault folder(s) contain axial leaded and DIP components, or am I forced to design my own models?

    I'm a newbie with CS and cannot find the libraries or vault folders containing axial caps, resistors, inductors and DIP IC's. Are there no schematic and PCB models for these and therefore I need to design my own? I can't believe that such libraries/vault…

  • SMD DIP SPST Library

    I've looked through the Omron library for this SMD DIP SPST (2POS) switch but the library only has connectors. Apart from copying an existing part (which I have done before, but every time I go to do it I have to re-Google how to) does anyone know where…
