    I use eagle not Altium, and there was no propeller library, so I build it myself. You learn quite a bit in the process so it may be good (for you) if you give it a try. (assuming it is similar to what I had to do for Eagle).

    its a standard footprint.


    600mil PDIP-40
    or
    10x10mm LQFP-44
    or
    9x9mm QFN-44


    so the solution is to go to the Altium footprint library, and find the suitable footprint.

    Then double and triple check that the pin spacing etc etc agrees with the parallax datasheet

    i reckon i will have to build my own library, yes you are right its a standard footprint. but what i wanted was all I/O are labeled etc, so when you create your schematic for your pcb, it is all clear.

    Thanks for the help guys.
    i put a request for altium, to include parallax products, hopefully they will listen[noparse]:)[/noparse]
