Libraries

Smart Component Management

DipTrace is always up-to-date; we continuously expand our component libraries and bring innovations directly to you. The standard library set already includes more than 160,000 components and 22,000+ patterns designed up to IPC-7351 Standard. Pattern and Component Editors allow designing new components using custom templates, bulk pin naming, pad renumbering, and bus management instruments, which significantly increase the working speed. Besides, Pattern Editor module features a built-in tool – Pattern Generator – enabling automatic generation of footprints and 3D models according to the latest IPC-7351 Standard. Importing libraries and 3D models from various formats adds even more engineering capabilities. Component and Pattern library verifications ensure an error-free design environment from the very beginning. Additionally, over 10 million parts at SnapEDA can be accessed right from within the DipTrace interface, saved to your library or placed directly to the project at no cost at all.

Component Footprint PCB

Pattern Editor

This DipTrace module allows the user to manage pattern libraries and make footprints. Built-in Pattern Generator creates patterns and 3D Models up to IPC-7351 Standard based on a few essential parameters and offers a variety of customization options. You can also opt for designing footprints manually applying various types of shapes, pads, holes, and other objects; standard and custom templates provide significant production speed-up. DXF import makes creating complex layouts easier.

Component Editor

Allows the user to manage component libraries and create single- or multi-part components by selecting a template and its dimensions, defining visual and electrical pin parameters, setting up a Spice model, and attaching pattern with 3D model to finalize component creation. BSDL import, bulk pin naming, and pin manager tools provide friendly interface and give maximum capabilities for managing pins and buses. Importing libraries from different EDA formats gives the capability to use existing shared or "previous software" components instead of making them from scratch.

3D Models

Are necessary for correct 3D board preview and export. More than 11,000 3D models are avialable for free download, while new models can be generated using integrated tools or created in external 3D editors for subsequent import in STEP, IGES, WRL or 3DS file formats. DipTrace offers convenient 3D model attachment system with comprehensive settings, real-time 3D preview, and various color templates.
