Title: Banana Jacks
Post by: mattkrass on February 09, 2012, 02:05:54 am

Do any of the standard Diptrace libraries have some kind of banana jack for PCB mounting in them? I'm finding it a bit difficult to navigate, but I don't believe there is anything there. ARe there any tricks for navigating the libraries? And finally are there any extra libraries people tend to keep around? Eagle had a bunch of those, and it seems like Diptrace has a decent community.

I do not think they have. Could you put a datasheet of the jack?


There are some Diptrace library's at their site. We also have a library here. If you need a part just add a datasheet, or a link to it, and the component will be made.

Ah, I just wanted to see if there was already a part for it. Since I'm trying to learn Diptrace this is as good an excuse as any to learn to make symbols myself, just didn't want to re-invent the wheel. Once I make the part for Diptrace, is there someplace I can/should send it to be considered for inclusion in a common library?

Thanks,
Matt

No, you can download the library from here, add the part and upload the library again.

Hey Shebu,

When you say there is a library here, where is "here"?

Here,  https://www.eevblog.com/forum/diptrace/library's/ (https://www.eevblog.com/forum/diptrace/library's/)
If you want a part just say the exact name and it would be nice to add a link to the datasheet.
