When you register the trial you get 5 part search credits from their 
parts library. If you want 50 more credits it will cost you 50 bucks. 
That to me is crazy.

I'm looking for known parts from digikey from e-switch ( granted maybe 
not all that popular ), but they were not found. So I suppose I'll have 
to figure out how to make my own footprint for free and use it.
