Featured footprints from the amazing Celestial Altium Library by Issus.

Pads

Pad table

Pad feature extraction lets you review a footprint without opening Altium Designer, with instant search by pad number and by mount type, SMD or THT.

Inspection

Your data, open for you to build on

Everything Sideband extracts from your PCB libraries is yours to inspect and reuse. The full parsed PcbLib sits on the Inspection tab as JSON, down to pad coordinates in mils, and the same data is available over the API, so you can extend the functionality of the app on top of it.

We don't keep your data hostage, and we don't limit what you can do with it on our platform.
