Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CSD25402Q3A

I cant seem to find the footprint for TI ICs anymore. the .bxl file at the bottom of every page has been removed. I use Eagle and I need the library file of this part for Eagle.

earlier TI gave the .bxl file from which we made a eagle compatible library. I wonder why it is no longer provided.

    Amalinda, 

    Our engineer was unsure what a .bxl file was. In general, we do not provide these drawings as our footprint already appears in our datasheets.

    .bxl files were always at the end of every product page of Texas Instruments. it has been that way for a quite a long time. 

    .bxl file is a file that can be opened with Ultra Librarian. That too was able to be downloaded from the bottom of every product page along with its foorprint. Unfortunately that segment of the product is now removed.

    the problem I have now is I use eagle and I do not have a way of finding a footprint for this device I got.

    could you kindly help me find the footprint for the device csd25402q3a?

    it will be much appreciated.

    Please post the files here. I will try to convert the file to an eagle compatible format and get the footprint. 

    if you any reason you are unable to post the file here, I will provide youmy email. thanks.

    ps.

    I am 100% sure those general footprint files for every TI product existed a couple of months back. I do not know why they are removed. can you please look into it and make them available gain? as designers it is very important we have proper footprints for products.

    There is something fishy about this post: 1. First, you still post some bxl files for some certain products. These are very useful and a complete database would be most helpful - it think that getting these bxl files out of your complete internal documentation is a child play. Secondly, since you do post these, how-come your engineer doesn't know about them?

    All in all, please try to keep up the good work and post as much data about footprints as possible. This matters a lot. Sometimes the package is the most important.
