Do they have a datasheet with the footprint detail? It's easy to make
your own footprint in KiCad.

Have a look on the mouser site. (they do not list the specific sensor
you mention, however if the device is part of the ABP series such as:

Mouser has links to their Ecad models, which include the kicad
versions. This may save you a bit of work. (the footprint looks very
simple anyway)
My point precisely. They do not have an ecad print for it, so I submitted
a request for a 4 pin version. So we wait.
Thank you Andy.

Hi Gene,
I think I recognize your name from along time ago on various other
mailing lists. Liad maybe? Or something other technical? Who
knows.
Anyway, welcome to the KiCad group and the tool! It's really
amazing
what you can get done with it now days.
Cheers,
John Stoffel

Thanks for the welcome John, and yes the name does have an old echo
of
familiarity, but don't now recall the list. I did at one point
inhabit
the eagle list and used it a few times, but gave up on it and wrote
my
own gcode for the simple circuits I was using for encoders and such
on my cnc machines.
Thats not the only list of course as my interests are best described
as varied.
Now I have a gage sensor to mount, but can't find its footprint in
the
debian 11 repo's old kit. It doesn't seem to have a footprint
directory, or perhaps KICAD has a different name for such? IDK.
Its a Honeywell TBPLLLN015PCUCV. Surface mount, 7 mm square 6 contact
pattern.
So I'd imagine I have to build it from the tarball, but can't find
the
right round tuit. At my age, 87, its pretty easy to misslay it, and
then can't remember where it is.
I've about a 10mm sq. space to glue the pcb with the footprint cut
into it. And a whole bunch of 603 series resistors and capcitors to
mount on an eval board for an ADA4099-1 high voltage op-amp.
The final target is regulating the air pressure to a mister on a
heavily modified 6040 mill by pwm-ing the power to a bank of 5,
small diapram compressors I can't even hear running over the other
cooling fans in the mills electronics. Feed that from the 2hp shop
compressor and what little hearing I have left would soon go away.
Not to mention burning up that conpressor, it wasn't built to long
tolerate a 50% duty cycle. Harbor Freight special. Nuff said. :o(>
Take care & stay well John.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
