Adding Cherry MX switches with LED/Diode

KiCad Bot requested to merge github/fork/ki5libs/Cherry into master

Created by: ki5libs

Existing Cherry MX footprints supplemented with versions with LED and diode Dimensions in documentation shown in inches, but I've used mm as in Cherry MX footprints existing in the library. Example of 1u switch with diode: CherryMX_Diode Example of 1u switch with LED: CherryMX_LED

All contributions to the kicad library must follow the KiCad library convention

Thanks for creating a pull request to contribute to the KiCad libraries! To speed up integration of your PR, please check the following items:

  • Provide a URL to a datasheet for the footprint(s) you are contributing
  • An example screenshot image is very helpful
  • If there are matching symbol or 3D model pull requests, provide link(s) as appropriate
  • Check the output of the Travis automated check scripts - fix any errors as required
  • Give a reason behind any intentional library convention rule violation.

Be patient, we maintainers are volunteers with limited time and need to check your contribution against the datasheet. You can speed up the process by providing all the necessary information (see above). And you can speed up the process even more by providing a dimensioned drawing of your contribution. A tutorial on how to do that is found here: https://forum.kicad.info/t/how-to-check-footprint-correctness/9279 (This is optional!)
