Readiness
L1 · Rigid-body ready
Rationale
The full portfolio — connectors, relays, sensors, resistors — offers STEP/IGES 3D models and ECAD models on each product page with extractable mass and collision geometry, hence L1; ECAD models must be converted to the local ECAD format through the free Library Loader, and the geometry carries no material parameters for EM or thermal simulation.
Scale
Covers connectors, relays, sensors and resistors across the whole portfolio; product pages provide STEP/IGES 3D models and ECAD models (via the free Library Loader); Ultra Librarian additionally hosts 16M+ verified symbols, footprints and 3D models including the full TE line. (The 16M+ Ultra Librarian figure and the TE partnership come from its official resource page; the per-product STEP/IGES and ECAD entry points follow TE's product-page structure. TE publishes no single-vendor model count, so coverage is stated by product line and platform. Checked 2026-10-31.)
License
Proprietary but free — CAD/ECAD models are free for product design; intellectual property belongs to TE Connectivity and may not be redistributed or used outside design. ECAD models require the free Library Loader to convert into the local ECAD format; the Product Drawing remains the authoritative source for all design activity, models are not guaranteed precise, and critical dimensions must come from TE's official drawings and datasheets.

Why it is listed

TE Connectivity is one of the largest connector and sensor vendors in the world, and its per-product CAD/ECAD downloads are the practical source for any electromechanical or electronic digital twin that must place a real, sourced component rather than a generic block.

Readiness assessment

Each TE product page exposes STEP/IGES 3D models plus an ECAD model, so rigid-body geometry with extractable mass and collision shells is available — that is L1. Note the distinction: the 3D files are plain geometry, and the ECAD model needs the free Library Loader to become a usable schematic symbol and footprint. Neither carries the material parameters needed for EM or thermal simulation.

Practical notes

Open a product page, go to the CAD Files section, and download the STEP/IGES zip directly or the ECAD model (then run the free Library Loader). Treat the Product Drawing as authoritative: TE explicitly says to base all design activity on it, and models are not guaranteed precise. For bulk PCB libraries, search TE on Ultra Librarian, which hosts 16M+ verified symbols, footprints and 3D models across vendors including TE.
