   When you have different +/- tolerances, enter the Min/Max data instead of Nominal + Tolerance.  When you enter the Min/Max data, a new Nominal dimension will be auto generated. The Nominal = the value between the Minimum and Maximum. This will also affect the Footprint Name, which uses the Nominal dimensions. | |

   SOT-89 has an irregular shape pin 2 and it's a different shape and size for every mfr.  Library Expert cannot auto-generate irregular pad shapes yet as this requires associated copper poly shapes.  We manually create SOT-89 and upload them to POD.  Check the mfr.'s Diodes and NXP for the Case Code SOT89 or SOT-89 and download those parts.  If you have a new SOT-89, we'll be glad to build it for $5 and share it with everyone else for free download.  | |
