| Does anyone know where I can get OrCAD Capture library files (OLB) for PIC18F452 and other PIC18s? Thanks. |

| I have the same question: is there a place, where I can download the library for the 18F258? I didn't get libraries for 18Fs in the standard libraries that came with OrCAD release 9.1. Microchip doesn't offer libraries either. |

It is so easy to create your own Orcad Capture parts it is hardly worth the bother to search the web for them. In two minutes you can make a part that has the pins just where you want them and labeled with the functions you are using them for.
There are so many errors in the libraries supplied by Orcad that you have to learn to at least edit parts anyway.

More than that, it takes longer to check for subtle errors in what you can find than it does to write your own.  |

I ended up making my own libraries. However, I wouldn't mind using and sharing existing libraries, especially if they have been peer-reviewed. So, I've set up the yahoo group for exchanging OrCAD libraries. http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/OrCADexchange Everyone is invited to join, and if you post you own cutom libraries, it will be just great.
EDIT: Currently there is a large library of PIC symbols in the group files.
