As everyone else said, if you don't have CAD, it's a pain to digitize the gerbers. So much so that we only did it once when I went to CircuitCam training. After you digitize the gerbers, you have to merge the BOM with it. And you have to tell it p

Can not speak for CircuitCam is made by Aegis Software I veliveve sound like need to get understanding of how tool is supposed to work to extract-create centroid positions. Using Gerber Only is a pattern match and cacluate logic process - ie make pac

Create a package, set the mechanical centering to the dimensions of the 8-DFN that you're trying to place, test the centering. Tweak the dimension that's failing. Shouldn't be too much of a problem. An 8-DFN package is nothing more than a rectangu

It's curious to us that you say creating packages on the Mydata's is time consuming. We have had Mydata's since the mid 90's and have only found this to be the case with odd form components. It will take you more time to search through someone else'

It's pretty much true, every company builds their own package database...usually on an as you go basis, meaning you create packages as you need them. If you bought the machine from MyData, it should have shipped with at least the basic packages in p

Hello, we just purchased a My12 machine. We now have to create every single package ourself - a very time consuming work. We asked our Mydata vendor if it is not possible to buy a package library to save time. He said, it is not possible - every comp

Hello Billy, We have 6 machines tied to a server. I can see where this would be a problem. Basically, the answer is you would need a package for every significantly different package that you are placing. I don't think you can just say 3 0805 packag

"Proper industry naming conventions" I believe does not exist. You must make your own comprehensive convention and force all those that create the new package types to first scour the database to see if the part already exists. Sometimes it will be
