PCBlib will appear in the files of our project. To manage the PCB library files, select the PCB Library option from the bottom bar.Ī window will appear, to which we manage PCB library files. A list of currently created libraries in a given library file is available here.

Altium Create Footprint through the Footprint Wizard function We can add a new library, delete it, edit it and directly insert it into the PCB project. The Footprint Wizard libraries can be found in the Tools> Footprint Wizard.Īfter enabling the wizard, we have access to creating PCB libraries of various elements. This wizard is great for creating a footprint for capacitors, resistors, diodes, BGA circuits and other available components on the wizard list. In this example, we will create a PCB library of the THT capacitor.

To create such an element, the basis is to have a catalog note with housing and lead dimensions. On the list in the Footprint Wizard, in our case, we select the capacitor and the unit of measure mm, because in our catalog item sheet the units are in mm.
