Wrong footprint provided for 474MMR400K
FYI, I originally downloaded the footprint for this component (474MMR400K) on March 4th 2024 and used it in one of my designs. Turns out that the footprint you supplied is not even close to reality. The board house informed me a few days ago.
The .dra from March 24 is named CAPRR500W50L720T300H750.dra and the ctr to ctr lead spacing is 5 mm. The datasheet for the parts shows 15 mm.
I tried it again a few moments ago, and today's .dra is named CAPRR600W81L1170T440H1422 and has 6 mm LS. Still not even close.
Unfortunately, I cannot embed pics or screen captures or add attachments in this message, but I think that it might be a good idea if you folks would check your FP generator. I realize responsibility is on me to doublecheck, and I generally do so, but this one seems to have gotten through. I will for certain assume all FPs downloaded from you will be scrutinized for errors.

Hello there,
This is Carlos stepping in for Ron, thanks for patiently waiting. Our engineers found out that the library for 474MMR400K was linked to this part page through an algorithm based on the package details, so it wasn’t verified against the datasheet.
Our team has taken note of this issue and we shall review our processes to avoid them in future. Meanwhile, we've recreated the exact part, and now the symbol and footprint are matching to the datasheet.
If there's anything else we can do, please let us know, we'd be happy to help!
