Click on the device that you want to place, and move your mouse to the schema sheet. This is where you will find Yoctopuce devices. So open the Schematic Capture Tool.īy clicking on the top of the component bar located left of the screen, choose the User Components category. To make a printed circuit board, you need to start by drawing its schema. ![]() ![]() You can then close the PCB Layout tool: the Yoctopuce library is installed properly. You should be able to find there all Yoctopuce devices. Now if you click on the top of the component bar, on the left of the screen, you can choose the category User Components. Go to the place where you have extracted Yoctopuce library, and select the directory models3d.Click on Add to add the 3D models of Yoctopuce library.Open the Tools menu, and under 3D Preview select Patterns and Models search.Go to the place where you have extracted Yoctopuce library, and select the file with extension.Click on User Patterns to add Yoctopuce footprint library in this group, and click on Add Library.Click on User Components to add the Yoctopuce compoentn library in this group, and click on Add Library.Open the Library menu, and select Library Setup.It is where the library must be installed. Start DipTrace, and select the "PCB Layout" tool. The library is a simple zip file that you can extract in the directory of your choice, but that will have to stay at that place. If not yet done, start by installing DipTrace, then download Yoctopuce library from our web site. Installing Yoctopuce Library for DipTrace If you prefer to see the steps being performed in front of you, rather than reading explanations, you can skip directly to the video. NB: all steps described below are illustrated from A to Z in the video at the end of this article. We will now explain how to use DipTrace to create a PCB dedicated to assemble Yoctopuce devices. And we will continue to update this library in the future as new devices will be released. We have just created a new add-on library for DipTrace, with the footprints for all Yoctopuce devices available until now. DipTrace includes many standard components such as terminal blocks and connectors. This library has to include the dimensions of each component, as well as the exact position of their connection pads, to let you easily create PCB connections between components. It is available for Windows, Mac OS X et Linux.Ī PCB design software is only be a real help when it includes a component library corresponding to your project.The license is free for non-commercial use, and the price is very reasonable for professional use. ![]()
