To demonstrate how this works, let's walk through an example. A great place to start is the Component Search Engine from Samacsys or SnapEDA. If you can't find your part in the Manufacturer Part Search panel, there's a good chance that one of these resources will have it.
In fact, I wrote an article a while back detailing some great free footprint libraries that you can use. There are other options available to you before you resort to creating them manually. If you can't find the exact schematic symbol and footprint for your component in the Manufacturer Part Search panel, don't worry. Component Creation without Existing Models This article will look at alternative ways to bring model-less components into your Component Library without creating them from scratch. However, manufacturers and suppliers generally provide the component models directly through their connections to the Octopart database creating limitations with creating certain components. Connections to Octopart and IHS Markit populate the component information of the MPS panel. In the last article, How do I Get Started with my Altium 365 Component Library?, we walked through the basics of component creation with the Manufacturer Part Search (MPS) panel in the Altium 365 Workspace.
