When you organise your footprints, what pinout do you use for SOT-23's?
Do you organise the pins... -like shown in the attachment? -or with pins 2&3 reversed? The bigger question really is: Where do you derive your pin numbering guidance from? I find that some datasheets just show the pin names against the actual pins (& cutout the middleman of *numbers*) thus avoiding the issue altogether. This doesn't help those of us who want to be able to use a common footprint across multiple designs. One answer is "define your own company standard", but if I chose against an industry standard, that'd be a bit silly wouldn't it. ===== Dom Bragge CID Snr PCB Designer Sydney, Australia ( 99SE sp6 ) Find local movie times and trailers on Yahoo!
