Hello Everyone
Anyone on the list know if there are any component librarys for mini- circuits
rf mixers like mcl
SBL-3 double balanced mixer etc for use with protel I need it for a project for
college.
Thanks.

I suspect not, although why not give them a call and ask? Mini-Circuits is
pretty easy to work with and you often get to talk to a Real Engineer rather
than just some marketing droid.
Note that for simulating mixers, while you certainly can do it in "plain old
SPICE" (which, to my knowledge, what Protel has), it'll be much faster and be
less difficult if you can get your hands on a harmonic balance simulator...
they were almost invented with mixer design in mind.

It only takes a few minutes to create that sort of thing with the
Pulsonix software I use. They only have six pins so it shouldn't take
much longer in Protel.

For six pins I'd agree... but have you ever tried to make a, say, 50 pin
dual-row connector using the Pulsonix footprint wizard? It doesn't have an
option to put odd pins down one side of the connector and even pins down the
other, as far as I can tell. As I recall, the Protel footprint wizard did...
it'd be a nice addition to see that show up in Pulsonix as well.
Obligatory plug for Pulsonix: The friendly folks at WestDev sent me back a new
DLL to import PADS 2007 footprint libraries within a couple of days of my
asking for it (it previously handled PADS 2003 footprints but Mentor changed
their library file formats). That's pretty impressive...

couple of toroids and few turns of wire, & maybe some diodes
cant be too complicated to come up with a model

With any half decent PCB CAD package you should be able to quickly
make your own !
I run some CAD software I got off ebay and that does it for less than
£20 !

"I run some CAD software I got off ebay and that does it for less than

I hope it's not PCBCab21... it's written by a guy who continually spams
newsgroups and often poses as someone other than the author giving
"independent" advice to people to use it it. He also tends to make a big deal
on his web site about the current version being, e.g., the "2008 latest
version!" since the software looks a lot like something from the 1980s...
Oh, wait, it's you Marra...

Do you really not realize how the internet works?
1) Look up this email thread via google.
2) Click on your email.
3) Click on "view profile"
4) Your entire newsgroup activity is there for the world to see.
You either talk nerdish stuff about train spotting, pretend you've
bought some great cad software on ebay for under 20 quid or pretend
that you've written some great CAD program (and are therefore an
expert) which you sell on ebay for under 20 quid.
Maybe you have another alter ego where you also complain about MI5
persecution!
