ECAD Components Library

中文

For Altium Designer, KiCad...

Introduction

This repository serves as a comprehensive electronic component library designed for ECAD (Electronic Computer-Aided Design) software, including popular platforms like Altium Designer, KiCad, and more.

Features

  • Extensive Component Coverage: Our library encompasses a wide range of electronic components, from resistors and capacitors to integrated circuits and connectors. This ensures that you have a diverse selection for your PCB (Printed Circuit Board) designs.

  • Vendor-Agnostic: Components are organized in a vendor-agnostic manner, providing flexibility in choosing components from various manufacturers based on your project requirements.

  • Footprint Compatibility: Each component is accompanied by footprint information, ensuring seamless integration into your PCB layout. The footprints are designed to be compatible with leading ECAD software platforms.

  • Regular Updates: The library is regularly updated to include the latest components and improvements. We welcome contributions and feedback from the community to enhance the overall quality and coverage.
