Protel Symbol

by **graaja** on Tue Jun 28, 2005 3:30 am

Hi All,

Has anyone created a Protel schematic symbol for the 29866 part for Protel DXP 2004? Protel already has a Cypress library with parts from the 26xxx family upto 48 pin SSOP. These symbols can be used for most of the devices of other families. But for the 100 pin 29866 part, a new symbol has to be created. Does anyone have this?

Only for the first DXP package.

Hi Bill,

I think DXP 2004 should be able to import from earlier versions. Can you post the library here?

by **lovell** on Tue Jun 28, 2005 4:37 am

I have posted both the our schematic and PCB.

Thanks a ton, Bill.

Most welcome, I hate building them but Protel is always so far behind what's on the market.

If the PSoCs pinout was reasonable, making the symbol wouldn't be as tedious!

Ganesh,

If you need some symbols done up, I think I owe you the time. I am running Protel 2004 SP4, so we're compatible. All you need to do is ask!

Not just the PSoC. If the Protel libs were up with the rest of the world we be ok. They have a custom symbol generator :roll:

. Leaves the rest of us to do it long hand.

Ganesh, some of the symbols will need these libs. The advantage of having been an IPC member.

lovell,

I believe that the IPC libraries are available finally from Altium. The latest library updates included a folder called IPC in the PCB footprint/land pattern library folder.;which contains around 29 separate files.

If you look at the other CAD packages available, they are not much better. I have worked with Orcad Capture/Layout 10.5 and PADs Logic/Router 2005. I find Altium Designer far superior!

Maybe if I am bored I could put together a symbol / footprint association library. I wonder if the guys at Cypress would be interested in that or are willing to pay for all that hard work.. since I am a poor student

Thanks for the libraries Bill.

Bill,

There were some corrections required to the 29866 symbol.

1. Pin 65 changed to Vss
2. Pins 82 and 83 added as Vcc
3. Pins 84 and 85 added as Vss.

I am attaching the corrected library here.

Ganesh,
Thank you for the correction. Just hate it when that happens mostly after the blank boards have been ordered.

Hello,

I am currently working creating an integrated library for all modern (recommended for new design) parts. The library will include all derivations of the part and have pcb associations.

That is Excellent Steve!

Hey everyone!,

I made an integrated library for all modern PSoC parts in Altium Designer 2004 (DXP). Please let me know if anyone finds an error in either the symbols or associated footprints, I will make the appropriate changes!

Hi Team,

Here is a copy of my current working Lib. Take note I have changed the QFN footprint for something I have found is a lot more reworkable for low to medium production runs.

Regards

I just purchased Altium Designer 6.8 and thought I would check with you guys to see if any of your libraries had been updated since these last posts.

Thanks for doing this, it will save me quite a bit of time!!
