Are STM32's PCB footprint/drawings provided by ST?

Hi, I'm using the STM32F334K8T6 and

I'm using EAGLE 9 to create PCBs.

https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/STM32F334K8T6/497-14953-5-ND/4989175?WT.z_slp_buy=stm_stm32f3

Does ST provide PCB libraries which I can use on EAGLE?

Where can I get them?

Since TI provides their drawing using Ultra Liberian,

https://webench.ti.com/cad/cad.cgi

I was curious whether ST provides the drawing as well.

I wish to get the STM32 MCU libraries and use the footprints, please.

@Matthew K​ You didn't specify if you're creating a daughter board?

If so you might find this helpful: https://www.snapeda.com/parts/NUCLEO-F429ZI/STMicroelectronics/view-part/?ref=search&t=nucleo

The 429 is one I had them do (for a daughter-board I made), and a few others are available at SnapEDA.

Hope that helps,

Best Regards, Dave

PS: You asked about PCB library.

If you're also looking for the component library, numerous free sources are available, for example:

Thanks, Dave. Is the daughter board meaning an adapter/add-on board for the discovery/nucleo boards?

I'm trying to create my custom PCB that has STM32F334K8T6.

This will not be mounted on the discovery/nucleo boards.

Thanks, the snapeda webpage has STM32F334K8T6, but I was curious whether ST provide these as well.

Maybe I'm biased but I would choose ST's drawing since ST is the supplier.

@Matthew K​ - Yes, daughter board is a stacked board using the Nucleo connectors (trend-followers call them Shields or Capes or other odd names).

It would be great if STM would provide component libraries for all popular CAD systems, but they don't seem to.

Regardless, carefully check any library components you obtain! You'll often find issues.

Hope that helps (don't forget to 'like' ;-),
