sir i need 40 pin zip socket library for altium .please give me link
thanks
 

Being able to design your own footprints is a very important skill for any PCB designer, regardless of what software you're using. Sooner or later you'll always run into a component for which you won't have a footprint readily available, and making footprints in Altium rarely takes more than a 10 minutes.

Assuming your socket is through hole with a 100 thau pitch, you'll only need to place an array of pads. If you set the grid to 100 thau then they will even snap in place automatically. In the time it took you to write that post, your footprint would be ready.

Good luck!
 

There are some in eagle depending on what version of Altium you have the is an import wizard that you can use but like said above its good practice to design your own
 

Learning to do footprints should be the first thing you get to grips with, footprints are the building blocks of a PCB design.....
 

thanks for all .i maked a lib companant .i face a problem in it. after place on pcb it is no showing its hide help me sir

i made this component .but it not showing after placed on pcb.
 

Check the following:
- set the origin of the footprint to the center of the pads to make sure it isn't far outside the boundaries of the PCB
- Tools => Update PCB with Current Footprint to push any changes you have made in the footprint to the PCB
- make sure the name of the footprint is unambiguous (PCB Library => Edit) so that Altium can find it in the library
- make sure the footprint is assigned to a schematic component, and that this component
- Design => Update PCB to push your schematic changes to the board
 

sir can you post it on a blank pcb and upload that pcb here ?

Do you mean you didn't make the footprint nor attached it to the schematic component?
