PIC 16F629


 

Hi
Thanks for the add to group.

In a schematic? I have a PIC16F629.
This does not appear on the IC list.
Is there a later PIC that is equivalent, 8 pin ?

Thanks
Charles


 

Why don't try to create the symbol by yourself? It Is a very simple task and could be a good exercise for the future.

I second Angelo's suggestion. Doing it yourself is very instructional.? I've been creating my own PIC parts for a number of years.?

I use, what I call the brute force technique.?
I start by getting the part's datasheet from the vendor's web site. Somewhere in the first 10-20 pages you will find information on the various packages you can get the part in. E.g? I tend to choose DIP packages. I'm not yet comfortable building with SMD parts.

Print the correct package layout page and the pin assignments table. It's then just a typing exercise to enter the data for each pin and layout the pins.

There is a chapter somewhere in the KiCad doc that does a better job explaining how to create schematic parts than I? can in a short post here.

There are a few businesses that can create parts (symbols and footprints).? The one I have used is SnapEDA.com.

Cheers,?

I would agree, create it yourself, using the KiCad guidelines, and
submit it for inclusion in the distributed library. That way everyone
gets to use it.

Look for a PIC16F675?

Thanks everyone for your messages.
Realized that it in? fact is a?? 12F629 for which there is a drawing.?? I will however learn the ropes for creating my own as you suggest.

Where do I locate the? 'distributed library'.

Have worked out how to add pins to op amps L272 etc.

Enjying this softwaare

Hi
I thought I knew how to use the 'add pin tool'.?? mmm?? Not quite yet.

I can get into the schematic edit screens etc and select in my case the? L272M (want to show the 98 pins in schematic) when I ask for the bulk edit if I select a group of 3 pins to add,? the added pins do not? get? shown in the diagram? ? Tried different ways but still no success.

Should not the?? 'Add Pin Tool '?? be showing on the vertical menu on the right of screen.?? Not there and I cannot (Google search) find how to get it added.

Thankyou
Charles
