Eagle 5050 Single Color LED footprint

hey all, im stock again with footprints :frowning:

I have single color LEDs like this:

I fould sparkfun lib has RGB 5050 LED but it seams its common anode, where one on ebay has no common leads :frowning:

So maybe some one know where i can get foot print element? Thamks a lot!

Create your own based on the data sheet. It would only take me a couple of minutes with the PCB software I use.

what software are you using? I use Eagle, i tried to re-do sparkfuns RGB footprint but i dont remember how any more,… andand to creating my own i don’t know how to get all the measurements right lol :slight_smile:

I you don’t know how to do a footprint it is about time you learn, google how-to it won’t take many minutes

anyway, in the sparkfun lib I just looked in there’s a “LED-TRICOLOR-5050” with six pins no common

hmm strange… when i use that Tricolor nad build bord it omits one of the leads :frowning:

the symbol and footprint has 6 pins so assuming you are using the same version of sparkfun.lbr that is not the problem

check the schematic see if the missing pin really has a connection or the wire just end end very close to it, the easiest is probably to delete and then redraw the wire

i cheeked the wires by drugging the element around and wires are attached, and its the same pin on all my leds, will double check though
