@b1ackmai1er thanks for this contribution. Several question and comments:

That symbol means the pin is open collector. It's in IEEE 91-1984. I'm not aware of any rules/guidelines for this in the library now so perhaps it's time to decide. Librarians? My feeling is that this helps to catch mistakes with visual checking, but a more robust solution is to have automated checking (like for missing pullup resistors, in this case) and that's a better way to go. My experience is that these open collector symbols are wildly inconsistent in the industry so it's not obvious there is a "correct" solution and we can decide what goes into KLC on this point. |
Oops forgot data sheet again: www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/sn74ls07.pdf |
@b1ackmai1er I do not know about the symbol. @evanshultz probably this is something to think more generally. Anyway, the 74LCX07 has Open Collector output too, so your symbol can be an alias of this one: Joel |
Yes. I say move ahead here and pin symbols can be a separate discussion. We already require separate symbols if pin types are different, so this is only a visual thing and won't affect our library otherwise. |
Hi gents, Changed to aliases as requested. |
Thanks @b1ackmai1er for the modification. |
Hi I have update this and other DIP?14* entries to DIPW7.62mm |
The travis warnings and errors are due to the fix of the footprint filters, this is normal. |
