Component libraries on GitHub speed up design process

31-07-2023 | Wurth | Industrial

Würth Elektronik now provides a comprehensive components library for Altium designers on GitHub. The ready-for-use component models and detailed data spare designers the exertion of having to compile models of components themselves for use in circuit-board layout software.

The company's Altium database is now being continuously expanded with new components, presenting symbols and footprints and detailed 3D and spice models. The libraries have been created in the dblib format to enable easy integration. We recommend the use of a Git tool to keep the database details up to date, thus making the cloning of the library files a simple matter.

The Würth Elektronik Altium libraries can be found in the following GitHub repository: <a href=https://github.com/WurthElektronik/Altium-Library.git target="_new">github.com/WurthElektronik/Altium-Library.git</a>.

A user guide provides instructions on how to use the models.
