MentorGraphics supplies an initial geometry library with BoardStation products. This library contains approximately 60 packages. The IDF Data Adapter (PCB I/F) is supplied with a matching library of 60 3D models for these BoardStation geometries. These models can be readily applied to any PCB assembly imported in EIF format.
Please note that the library models supplied with Creo Elements/Direct Modeling IDF Data Adapter (PCB I/F) may or may not match the MentorGraphics library parts in terms of naming conventions, orientation, and geometry. Parametric Technology makes no warranty regarding compliance of the Creo Elements/Direct Modeling IDF Data Adapter (PCB I/F) library parts with any BoardStation library parts.
The default directory is:
$INSTALLDIR/personality/sdpcb/eiflib
This library contains two subdirectories named smd_geom and std_geom which contain the actual models. These 3D models can be accessed using the Model group on the PCB tab.
