All of the model dimensions (other than the dark brown resistors) are taken directly from their datasheets and should be correct:
- The capacitors are 'Nichicon UVR, UHW, and UPW ' series.
- The diodes are taken from the 'DO_### ' standard packages.
- The dark gray resistors are 'Vishay LVR ' series (which are end-of-life).
- The light tan resistors are 'Xicon CF-RC ' series.
- The dark brown resistors are 30+ year old stock that I have (their dimensions I measured with calibers).
In addition, the resistor and diode pad pitches are set to a multiple of 50 mil. (I rarely work in millimeters when laying out a PCB)
If you would like the exact dimensions, I could post the spreadsheets for them.
The dimensions of ALL the models should be accurate (if not, I will fix those that are wrong).
As you can see from an earlier post, I 3D model and print project cases and mounting hardware; so accurate dimensions are important to me to insure part clearances.
I use Diptrace to export a step file of the finished PCB to use in FreeCAD to make project cases.
As mentioned before, I've been building 3D models as my need arises. Not just TH parts.
I have several transformers, screw terminal strips, connectors, and even a few modified Meanwell power supply frames plus OLED breakout boards (from Adafruit and Waveshare).
I also do a fair amount of SMD parts. But, most of the SMD parts I can find 3D models for.
I'm just making my work available for those who are interested.
- If you don't like them, don't use them.
- On the other hand. If there is a 3D model you can't find (or if you just want color or pitch changes), ask and I will try to make it.
