Creating DIP Sockets

Hi Everybody how to design sockets for dips in Eeschema …

I would like to design an development board for AVRs various dip pins like STK500…

Create a symbol for your component in the usual way. Just assign the footprint of the socket instead of the one for the dip package.

Maybe this will clear up some things: What is the difference between footprints and symbols?

ok Thanks Rene:grinning:

Take care, the courtyard and silkscreen are obviously different, but also hole diameter may be different and this depends on your socket. Turned pin types tend to be a smaller diameter.
