CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: SFH617A-2X016
  • Footprint: Package_DIP:DIP-4_W7.62mm
  • 3D model: DIP-4 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: sfh617a-2x016-etched.step / sfh617a-2x016-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); sfh617a-2x016.step / sfh617a-2x016.glb are the bare package body.
