The question is a simple as it sounds. I need a library (or part numbers if they already exist on Eagle), that will provide me with all USB types (female versions).
This includes:
- Type A (not SS)
- Type B (also not SS)
- Mini A
- Mini B
- Mini AB
- Micro B (Micro A is very uncommon)
- Micro AB
- Type C

Wiki page on the USB types is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB#Overview.

Hopefully a library exists!

Check the connector libraries:

I'm using an old version of Eagle (7.5.0). Newer versions might have more connectors.

Thanks so far,

I have already had a look at the connector libraries, and I was able to get few of the connectors I wanted, but not all. And some of them were not THT, which makes my life so much easier.

I will have another look though. Maybe I'm being blind!

EDIT: Just had another look, this time with 'Smds' disabled and I was only able to find Type-B and Mini-B out of the 8 needed.

I would find the connector you want and just make the library. It is not that hard and is extremely useful to know how to do for other designs. We can help you.

I guess that is the way to go.

Where is the best place I should start on making my own library?
