Microchip EDA Schematic Symbols / PCB Footprints Library

Schematic Symbols and PCB Footprints are available for just about every Microchip device and in most popular EDA CAD/CAE software formats:

• Altium Protel
• Altium PCAD
• Altium Designer
• Cadence Allegro DE HDL ( Concept )
• Cadence Orcad Capture / Layout / PCB Editor
• Mentor DxDesigner
• Mentor Design Capture
• Mentor Design Architect
• Mentor PowerLogic
• Mentor Boardstation
• Mentor PowerPCB ( PADS )
• Mentor Expedition
• Zuken Cadstar

The way this works is that you download and install the free Reader version (ULADI_Reader-Microchip.exe) of Accelerated Designs Ultra Librarian program and then you load the appropriate file below and let Ultra Librarian convert it into the proper format for whatever EDA system you use. More info about the commercial version of thier software at:

All the available files are listed at:
http://www.microchip.com/stellent/idcplg?IdcService=SS_GET_PAGE&nodeId=1406&dDocName=en537026 but that link will most likely change tomorrow so instead search microchip.com for "Footprints" or "Ultra Librarian" or just get the copies of the most interesting files (current as of 2008/10/13) cached here:

Comments:

• OK, HAve done it but you get only the chip. for example wish to have MP6024 OpAmp which is a package of four OpAmps
  But it arrives only as a whole chip!!+
