BlogDRV8833PWPR PCB footprint

Stop searching for PCB footprints.

Inky turns a part number or datasheet into a schematic symbol and PCB footprint, then builds the dual-motor driver board.

HeyPCB shows a flow from part number TPS63020 through a datasheet and schematic symbol to a PCB footprint.

A missing footprint can stop a PCB design before it starts. You have the datasheet, but still need to turn pin tables and mechanical drawings into a component you can actually use.

Now Inky can do that work for you.

Inky arrows link a 16-pin HTSSOP pin configuration and package drawing to a DRV8833PWPR symbol and footprint.

Type a part number, paste a datasheet link, or upload a PDF. Inky reads the documentation and generates the schematic symbol and PCB footprint directly in HeyPCB.

For this demo, we used the DRV8833PWPR motor driver. Inky generated a 17-connection schematic symbol and matching 16-pin HTSSOP footprint, including the exposed thermal pad.

The generated part is saved to your library, ready to use across projects. Reference it with @ in an Inky prompt, and you can design an entire circuit around it.

We asked Inky to build a dual-motor driver board using the new component. It generated the schematic, placed the components, and routed the PCB using the footprint it had just created.

A missing footprint shouldn't limit what you can build.

Start with a part number. Build the rest with Inky.
