Libraries very limited?

Thanks for the answers, all very helpful
Made already an .sch and PCB and a PIC16F1847
I have some more questions, I will post later

Best wishes
Joe

kicadlib.org doesn’t look like a valid site for kicad libraries.

Incidentally, the thousands of .bxl CAD/CAE files on Microchip’s website (~ 641 just for the 16F family, for example),

http://www.microchip.com/development-tools/resources/cad-cae-symbols

can be converted with bxl2text, which now exports an eeschema (.lib) file as well as gEDA gschem schematic symbols and gEDA compatible (.fp) files - which pcbnew can load.

See:

Cheers,

Erich.

I guess the domain kicadlib.org lapsed and now seems to be completely unrelated to kicad.
