Dan's suggestions are similar to what I've received from one of our suppliers: Use a .050 diameter copper circle with .100 solder mask opening in 4 places. Making the part as a pin may include a drilled hole (which you don't want). What I did was make a part with one surface mount pad of

Hi, I am a geda newbie. I am trying to design a circuit and draw the schematics using gschem. The circuit uses AT90S2313 micro for which the symbol is available under micro. But I cannot see the pin 10, Vdd and pin 20 Vcc on it. Is there any reason for not putting them in there or is there

You can just remove it if you don't need exact symmetry. I'll try a board with it removed. I don't care about symmetry, just something functional with the least number of parts. R2 is usually 10 times larger than R3. Ok, thanks. Why in hell do you use such damn small parts ;-). That's
