	Hello,

did anybody try to design a footprint for a 5630 SMD LED?
The recommended design for the Lumileds one is here on page 7:

http://www.lumileds.com/uploads/351/DS201-pdf

In addition to that, I would like to modify the footprint for hand soldering,
i.e. the middle thermal pad should have a hole in it, connected to a
large pad on the opposite side of the PCB. The hole and the pad would
then serve as a heat sink.

What is the best way to do it?

Thanks!

-Yenya
