decompose a component

myil17

Hi everyone,

Can anybody tell me how to decompose of existing custom made component?
I need to enlarge one of the pin hole of a mosfet. Is there an easy way to do it?

Best regards

    If you have the source footprint and pad stack files, you can modify the pad stack and update the footprint (Tools->padstack->refresh).

    If you dont, you can edit the footprint from the board design. It's in the menu somewhere, not at my computer.

    You can also export all the footprints on your board and make changes to the footprint as well.

    File - Export - Libraries (or Export - More - Libraries in OrCAD) pick a folder location and export. This writes out any filename.dra, psm, bsm, ssm, osm, fsm and pad files to the chosen directory.
