Hi guys, I was looking for this L293D Motor drive Module DKARDU part in fritzing but I could not find that. I made my own part. > **[l293d-241010a.pdf](https://www.mantech.co.za/datasheets/products/l293d-241010a.pdf?srsltid=AfmBOoqu15oRT8QMekk9HFuCLqhRIKhS8c3wIUdrVwM8KHlaQgoZ7rdJ)** > > 507.07 KB [L293D Module.fzpz](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/short-url/y9rShwT62MPS0wmggPmkE0y33Ss.fzpz) (27.3 KB) ---

Hi @lufdate Thanks for your contribution! I’ll check the part for u ---

Hi @lufdate great work on your part! Upon just a quick look I do suppose u need help in the PCB? Don’t worry, I can help you. It requires special “declarations” in the .fzp file, so it’s ok ---

OK @lufdate Here’s the fixed part and why ## Breadboard view * * * > Pro tip 1: You don’t have to always draw elements from scratch – use what Fritzing has for you!! You can use the L293D chip from Fritzing itself [L293D.fzpz](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/short-url/819jIM70hFxtBccWGAuMMkfa7FA.fzpz) (6.6 KB) IIt is also **not recommended** to use PX for SVG scaling – this creates inconsistencies across SVG editors. Use 0.001in scaling always, as stated in the parts standards > Pro tip 2: Start with top view raster images This is usually the easiest way to make a part. You also need to lay some generic 0.1in headers on the image to see if the raster image is scaled correctly. ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/e/1/e14aa9c51c7c414a67db8966fa8c132a0c2b494d.jpeg) Keep laying out the connectors. Preferably you can keep the pin sequence like this to align with schematic standards ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/b/b/bb1c8775b2b43f4d56de17a646b57604643e17d8.jpeg) You can then also borrow some elements from the fixed Cytron Rekabit I sent u ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/0/3/03ad5a7aa7b75a43a17a6f6517831ec516d2f365.png) After placing you can get somethig like this. Then, you have to reset the viewbox, ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/7/2/7241f710537f16fce742b7d97716eb8d1ca5c61f.png) You should also **never** use PX. In the standard, the scalibf should be 0.001in. To fix, ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/a/b/ab3a27abe0d395e8b39bf77b52a611957774f11f.png) ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/a/2/a2be24af0f45e27c7b3f9216265761bd8bc48bcf.png) ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/a/3/a39cd55a49964e82e3569d1ab82b0d056f9e9b59.png) Now ungroup to remve transforms ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/1/1/11caaa00df85471cef205ef88f31d4875291cfb6.png) and then regroup and rename ti “breadboard” ![image](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/default/original/3X/9/2/92fb699360710385ff00769e87c1f136abc4e290.png) Don’t forget to remove the raster image! breadboard.svg Note: I temporarily disabled the download ## PCB View * * * OK for this you can just derive from the breadboard SVG. ---

Hi @RAPTOR7762 thanks for your detailed explanation. I’ll use that advice for my next design. ---
