Jun 29, 2006. Could i find component libraries for OrCAD (Capture & Layout). In particular, i'd like to have newest xilinx FPGA's footprints and capture parts.

During this process of selecting a part or a library, for PCB and not simulation always add the discrete library. This has the most common parts. After OrCad project has been completed, when you open the place a part menu or 'p' on the keyboard, you can type a part number or a part type like zener, it will search all libraries and tell you which one it is (library) add the library, select the part and place it.

If you create custom schematic images or modify one in the library, add them to a new library, updates can over write standard libraries and your custom will be lost.

You will have to go to a schematic that used the part and recover it from there. Having the same problem I built this OrCAD to EXCEL part list. Here is a link to my GitHub I propose a CaptureEXCELcomplete.zip file. In that zip file you will find all OrCAD Capture libraries in an EXCEL format. Each Capture library content is there in it's corresponding EXCEL file. All files are presented in Folder Sub-Folder arrangement identical as the one present in the Capture libraries installation folder.

To quickly find where a part may be in a library all you have to do is UnZip the file on your local drive (make sure that particular folder in within Windows Indexing location) and then open Windows Explorer, navigate to where you unzipped the file and use the Windows Explorer Search feature. With each character you enter in the search field you will see exactly in which library you can find that search string.

Furthermore, you can use those EXCEL files to build a MS ACCESS database for other uses. Hope this help Cheers.
