Description
Editable KiCad footprint with numbered copper pads, drill dimensions and package outlines.
Use in KiCad
- Download the .kicad_mod file.
- Create a folder named TEP.pretty and put the file inside.
- In KiCad, open Preferences → Manage Footprint Libraries and add that folder.
- Select the footprint in the Footprint Editor or assign it to your schematic symbol.
Dimensions are in millimeters. Confirm the package and pin mapping against your chosen part before fabrication. This is a footprint, not a complete PCB or 3D model.
