I have created a SOT23 single diode and 3 dual SOT23 diodes some days
ago and put it to gedasymbols.
Please let me know if there are any problems.

gschem symbols do not have to have the same number of pins as the
footprints you use. Feel free to put a diode in a DIP-40 footprint.
The only key is that the pin *numbers* have to match. So, if you have
a sot-23 footprint diode that uses pins 1 and 3, you can't use a
gschem diode that uses pins
I've always handled this by making the symbol and footprint match. In other
words - you need a 3-pin symbol to match your 3-pin footprint. There is a
"NC" gschem symbol in the library for this purpose. You do have to be
careful of how gnetlist handles the "NC" net. It should not appear in the
n
I know through the years there has been a lot of discussion on this issue but I
haven't been able to find the answer to my problem after searching the
archives. I'm wondering how to refer to a 3 pin footprint with a two pin
schematic symbol as is the case for a sot23 diode. My actual question
