Dear sir/madem

i am using OrCAD-9. version i am designing a RF circuit in this i
want a footprint of SCM-2500 ( Minicircuits ) in there ia getting
dimensions from Minicircuits website but i want to footprint of that IC
is there any way to to get footprint with out designing this IC in
Library tool.

With enough searching, you may be able to find a footprint. However,
it is generally easier to make your own using the library tool. The
part you mention should take no more than 10 minutes to make once you
learn how to use the library editor. It's well worth the effort to
learn to make your own footprints.

Make the footprint yourself. If you do any amount of CAD work, you
_will_ find that you often have to make your own schematic patterns
and PCB footprints. You may as well learn to use the library editors
now.
