well tested 0201 symbol footprint

Hello,

Could someone recommend a 0201 footprint that is well proven for good from personal experience for reflow assembly?

    I downloaded this morning from Ultralibrarian for Vishay CRCW020110K0FKED. It looks real different from the Vishay recommended pads.

    The file from SnapEDA did not build properly. There is no copper.  It has only .psm for the padstack, no .pad

    Yep. Looks like this was created under 16.3 and it doesn't pop up the padstack editor correctly. I've messed with it a bit, and still can't get the script to run. Good thing there's so many other options.

    You can also download Library Expert Pro from PCBLibraries (free) and learn it to create most anything. My co-worker also uses the Cadence-centric Orcad Library Builder (haven't tried it).

    Don't worry about the SnapEDA symbol. If you have a personal symbol that went many times through fab process, you could upload one .dra from your personal library. The mentor site has lots of justification on the choices they made.
