Re: gEDA-user: Surface mount footprint pin pitch changes at different magnifications in PCB

[Rob Butts <r.butts2@xxxxxxxxx>]

   I verified the footprint with the mark function.  The ic spec
   coincides with what I'm seeing in PCB.  Yes, I did etch this myself.

     As a general rule, always check the part against a printout if
     you're
     unsure of the footprint.  However, the "right footprint" issue is
     different than the "looks right" issue.  Use the Mark (ctrl-m) to
     measure the distance between various pins and compare to the chip's
     specs to see what's up.
     Did you etch this board yourself, or have it professionally made?
