Hi,
I'm looking for schematic parts libraries anf footprint libraries.
Do anybody know some reliable libraries that are updated on regular basis?
I would like to have schematic parts and footprint libraries that are compatible, i.e. schematic parts having PCB footprint name defined and footprints libries containing footprints the schematic parts reffer to.

It's not a one-to-one mapping! Most schematic parts could take on maybe half a dozen or more different footprints. Nobody can guess which footprints you might want to use for any given part. Only you can do that.

It maybe one-to-one mapping if the schematic part definition has defined pcb footprint name and the footprints library contains this footprint.
I found "EMA CAD library" that has mapping done in CIS database.
To use it, CIS version of OrCAD capture is required.
