CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: TPSMC6.8AHE3_B
  • Footprint: Diode_SMD:D_SMC
  • 3D model: SMC(DO-214AB) (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: tpsmc6-8ahe3-b-etched.step / tpsmc6-8ahe3-b-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); tpsmc6-8ahe3-b.step / tpsmc6-8ahe3-b.glb are the bare package body.
