“With the current constraints in the global electronic component supply chain, we’re pleased to be able to support the Seeed and ShenZhen open parts libraries, which are helping engineers streamline part selection and manufacturing. Once they click the Symbol, Footprint and 3D model link, a viewer will popup allowing engineers to preview the models, and download instantly. To get started with the latest SnapEDA integration, engineers simply visit the Downloads section on the Seeed’s OPLs. By downloading ready-to-use CAD models for the parts they select, engineers can save weeks of time, and reduce costly prototype iterations during the manufacturing process. In addition to preventing delays, engineers also save money since the components in these libraries are sourced from Seeed’s affiliated partners network and/or are purchased in bulk.ĭuring the design and manufacturing stage, the addition of the SnapEDA CAD models to the OPLs make them even more valuable. This is especially helpful given the current global component shortage affecting the electronics industry. Passive Plus, Inc., Offers Extended Value Ranges for Traditional HI-Q/Low ESR Capacitorsĭuring the parts selection stage, the OPLs save engineers time and reduce delays, since the parts are carefully selected to ensure they are widely available in the local supply chain, eliminating the need to import parts and undergo lengthy and costly customs clearance processes.
