Ultra Librarian Partners with Vishay to Provide Free 3D Vishay CAD Models
July 13, 2021 | Ultra LibrarianEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Ultra Librarian, the world's largest free cloud-based CAD library provider, announced its partnership with Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. to provide free symbols, footprints, and 3D models for download from ultralibrarian.com in over 30 CAD formats.
“Ultra Librarian users can now download new, up-to-date Vishay components,” said Manny Marcano, president and CEO of EMA. “And because of our partnership, the Vishay catalog now available for download on Ultra Librarian will continue to grow. Ultra Librarian users can even request Vishay models that aren't currently available, and they will be created within two business days.”
The Ultra Librarian models are built to globally recognized industry standards and go through a rigorous verification process prior to being uploaded into the library. Design engineers can depend on the quality of the Ultra Librarian models, as well as save a tremendous amount of time, because the manual creation of the symbols, footprints, and 3D models has been eliminated. This is especially important for smaller engineering and prototyping teams in larger organizations that need to be able to realize designs and concepts quickly. The Vishay library of components in Ultra Librarian will continue to expand throughout 2021.
“This partnership with Ultra Librarian will enable our customers to take full advantage of this valuable resource to accelerate design creation,” said Joel Smejkal, executive vice president of business development at Vishay. “Providing easy access and the breadth of formats will help designers speed their path to production with Vishay components.”

The Death of the Microsection
06/26/2025 | Bob Neves, Reliability Assessment Solutions, Inc.I got my start out of college grinding and polishing PCB microsections. My thumbs are a bit arthritic today because of the experience (microsection grinders know what I mean). Back then, via structures were rather large, and getting to the center in six steps of grinding and polishing was easy compared to what my team has been doing recently at the lab.
