So I considered a side-mounted connector: one row of pins on the top side of the PCB, and another row on the bottom side, similar to the header on the right side of the following image: http://fabiobaltieri.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/usbasp.jpg?w=630 Is it possible to describe it with a single footprint? Or should I separate the 6-pin connector to two three-pin ones in my schematics, and then use two identical footprints - one for the top side, and another one for the bottom side?
