What do you mean by 'footprint source'? If you want the CAD layout,
what file format?

By source I mean someone who can kindly pass it along to me, or a company 
from which I can purchase it.

I use Orcad Layout, so if you're offering me a footprint, you could send me  
a library file, that'd be awesome. I could potentially also deal with 
Protel format...

Why are you posting to so many off-topic groups?

----------------(from OED Mini-Dictionary)-----------------
PUNCTUATION - Apostrophe
Incorrect uses: (i) the apostrophe must not be used with a plural
where there is no possessive sense, as in ~tea's are served here~;
(ii) there is no such word as ~her's, our's, their's, your's~.

Confusions: it's = it is or it has (not 'belonging to it'); correct
uses are ~it's here~ (= it is here); ~it's gone~ (= it has gone);
but ~the dog wagged its tail~ (no apostrophe).

I have used this pay for service before and it was a great time saver.
They handle three CAD packages, Allegro, Orcad and Protel 99

Silly me but, why not ask Xilinx?  They exist to have their product used.
If your looking for solder pad sizes, that the route I would take.  I don't
design myself but I have checked out board data this way.
