I'm fairly new to this, so am stuck already.
In Altium, if a part isn't in the libraries I know I can add other libraries and search those, but what do I do if it's not to be found?
An example is 6n138 opto-isolators. Do I just use a generic 6 pin IC in some library? Or is there some place for these I am missing?
Am I better off using Eagle since it seems much more widely used, and I'm more likely to find these parts?
