Ray footprint: the shipped SOIC-8 has no thermal pad, but the symbol and the datasheet both show 9 pads. datasheet EP 2.15x2.15mm; matches the land already resolved for sibling rt8289gsp from its own datasheet. Chosen from this part's OWN datasheet, not inferred from a sibling - the Richtek SOP-8-EP parts alone carry three different exposed-pad sizes, so family inference would have been wrong. Rebuilds the .lbr, re-derives pin 1 and pads.json. feedfa0 1mo ago
