Part for SHT30 (SHT3X-D1S)

I create another part for an SHT30 (SHT3X-D1S) and not sure if I set the terminalId correctly in the Part Editor. If not, is there any documentation on how to do this?

I’ll check the part once I have time

Again part editor not very reliable. For me I use generic ICs as a base for parts.

Nope, same error.

terminalId missing in schematicView (likely an error)

In theory (although it rarely works for me) you can do it in parts editor like this:

capture

select pin 1 (which is really connector0 in the .fzp file which you are changing to confuse matters) and click on the “w” (for west) icon to select the orientation of the terminalId and that should do it. As noted for me it rarely does. This is probably covered in Old_Grey’s video tutorials (as he unlike me was able to make it work, although I could not even with his explanations!) The way I make parts (and FritzingCheckPart.py) is covered in my tutorial.

Fritzing PART CREATION Video Tutorial Series

I lately learned there aren’t links to the videos in Old_Grey’s tutorial so you need to do a google search for the title and then they come up on YouTube.

Hi Peter also discovered some prblems

@dapostol73 Couple of problems here

The part

GY-SHT3-_HumidityTemperatureSensor-fixed.fzpz (5.1 KB)

First unzip your .fzpz file to get

image1617×813 26.5 KB

Breadboard

First, there’s a stray element here

image
image1918×1005 104 KB

To solve that issue, delete it

Next, the connectors are slightly off by 0.001in. To fix set the SCL connector to 0.163

Do the same for the GND connector.

Schematic

The terminalIDs are a little suspicious

See that crooket wire

To fix, delete the entire schematic and redo with Randy’s Inkscape Schematic Extension

Set the connectors

  1. VCC
  2. GND
  3. SCL
  4. SDA

Click apply and you’ll get this

Save the file and done

PCB

Another bout of more severe problems

First start with breadboard and Ctrl+Shift+G or Cmd+Shift+G to ungroup everything

Next, delete everything except the connectors, board and the holes

Next go to XML editor and (with connector0pin selected) change from

image
image1917×1003 96.5 KB

to

image
image978×459 19.5 KB

Do the same for the others

Next go to the hole and change from

image
image1919×1008 78 KB

to

image
image1918×1003 90.6 KB

Do the same for the other screw.

For the rectangle, change from

image
image1919×1010 89.4 KB

to

image
image1919×1006 81.9 KB

Now go to edit → select all → ctrl/cmd+G to group

Reset the viewbox

image
image1918×1009 90.1 KB

then ungroup to remve the transforms

image

image
image1919×1007 76.7 KB

Group the connectors twice

image
image1919×1010 78 KB

and rename to

image
image1919×1008 76.4 KB

Group the rest

image
image1919×1007 76.7 KB

and rename to

Next in the .fzp fike there are missing connectorIDs, which why I say the part editor won’t change. To fix, change from

<connector id="connector0" name="Pin 1" type="male">
   <description>VCC</description>
   <views>
    <breadboardView>
     <p layer="breadboard" svgId="connector0pin"/>

     <p layer="copper1" svgId="connector0pin"/>
     <p layer="copper0" svgId="connector0pin"/>
    </pcbView>
   </views>
  </connector>

to

  </connector>

After which save the file, zip the folder into a .fzpz file.

Thanks for the @RAPTOR7762 still learning. Currently I’ve been hand editing the SVG, what editor are you using to create/modify them? And good to know the fzpz is just a zip file.

Inkscape is open source (and thus free) and gives the best control of the svg is what I use. Illustrator works, but older versions will only dimension svgs in px which causes scaling issues. you can import them to parts editor and it will convert them, but it is extra work.
