Sullins 02x80 JCB80DYRN symbol and footprint

[Philipp_Frase]

Dear all,

I am looking for a symbol and footprint for the JCB80DYRN 02x80 connector. Unfortunatley I couln’t find anything in the web and here in the forum.

Does someone has by chance this symbol/footprint or knows where to get them?

Thanks a lot.

Regards
Philipp

It is in most cases faster to make your own than to search one and verify it for correctness. As a starting point: Tutorial: How to make a footprint in KiCad 5.1.x (From scratch)?

regarding symbol: If the connector has 80 pins overall then you can use the Conn_02x40 … (choose the pin numbering style that suits your needs) symbol as found in the official lib. If it has 160 pins then you will need to make a symbol for yourself. (Either extend the script to generate one for you or make one by hand or find another generator. https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-library-utils/tree/master/schlib/autogen/connector)

Thanks for the answers so far. I ended up creating my own symbol.

Now i wanted to create the footprint for it. Can someone help me doing this? Is there a tutoarial on how to create a edge connector?

Thanks a lot.

Thanks mate. But on this I don’t see the gap between the pads and the dimensions of the pad.
Can you help me? What do I oversee?

Rene already gave a link for that above. There’s nothing special in an edge connector, you just have to place it carefully in the layout. At the moment KiCad doesn’t support edge line in footprints, so you must draw the Edge.Cuts outline in the board and add the footprint to its place.
