Lodestone vtm950 6

evanshultz requested to merge github/fork/evanshultz/lodestone-vtm950-6 into master

Why the weird pin numbering? Well, I know of two major uses for this bobbin:

  1. And inductor. In this case, for easy insertion the pins across from each other are used so that the part can be inserted into the PCB in either orientation and it will work. This was done with the other Lodestone bobbins I created that have been merged.
  2. A common mode choke. In that case, the following symbol will work: image

In both of those cases, the middle two pins aren't used so I numbered them 5 and 6.
