Added 70ns and moved the refdes/value down. As for the pinouts - I could have sworn they were all the same... |
According to the datasheet there is another TSOP package for this part with a "reversed" pinout - looks like reverse mount judging from the drawing. There's no footprint for it but since as you said this is a pretty old part I don't feel particularly motivated to add it. |
We are not obliged to offer symbols (and therefore footprints) for every part. Not even all available alternatives to parts in the lib. The question about the production state of the part does not even come into play here. (But well it makes even less sense to put work into maintaining obsolete or soon to be obsolete partts.) |

I originally thought the reverse TSOP package was meant to be mounted inside the board, but that is actually not the case. According to this question, it allows for placing the part on both sides of the board with "a minimum of wiring congestion". The pinout is exactly the same, but it is mirrored horizontally. So the footprint is pretty easy to create - it might not be scriptable though. |
Great. Is there any reason to make the description more clear that this is normal/non-reverse? |
There is no difference as far as the symbol is concerned, the pinout is the same. I'm submitting a PR now for the reverse mount footprint with the suffix _Reverse, so unless that needs to be changed the current footprint filters should pick it up. |
Thanks! |

No idea if this should have a more specific name, it appears to be a somewhat jellybean part.
