Part Number: MCT8316A

Hi team,

Here's an issue from the customer may need your help:

In a PCB package generated with Ultra Librarian:

U_PMCT8316A1VRGFR_TEX

U_PMCT8316A1VRGFR_TEX-L

U_PMCT8316A1VRGFR_TEX-M

What is the difference between these three packages TEX TEX-L? What do the three TEX-M suffixes mean? Could you help check this case? Thanks.

Best Regards,

Cherry

Hi Cherry,

I just did a quick search and found U_PMCT8316A1VRGFR_TEX as the name of the footprint for this device. Below is the link. I'm not sure about the other two variants. I guess you can use U_PMCT8316A1VRGFR_TEX as the footprint as this device comes with just one package.

Hi Vishnu,

Thanks for your help here.

Above are the packages exported from Ultra Librarian, and the .bat implementation will generate the above 3 versions of the package.

The package pad for the L suffix is shorter than the package without the suffix.

The package pad for the M suffix is longer than the package without the suffix.

And they checked again, found previously, this drop-down menu would have three versions of the package can be chosen, but now no packages are available for the -L and -M suffixes.

Thanks and regards,

Cherry

Cherry,

Thanks for sharing the details. As I mentioned, I'm not sure of the L and M variants. I would recommend using the U_PMCT8316A1VRGFR_TEX.

Vishnu
