Hey folks. Has anyone done up any PCB footprints for any of the
Hanwei gas sensors, like the MG800 etc, with that six-pin circular pin
pattern?

Thanks,
-Dave

I did not find the footprint pattern on their website
http://www.hwsensor.com/English/products.shtml
Maybe somewhere in the much more extensive Chinese section. But Chinese is
all Greek to me ;-)

Funny man. ;) The footprint is detailed in the datasheet. A copy of
it can be found here:

Actually technical greek (modern greek) is not that hard to understand.
(Disclaimer: I studied classical greek for 5 years, but modern greek is
so different that it is not very helpful).

But the english translation pointed to by Dave is so bad that I'd prefer
a greek translation done by a native greek speaker :-)

This said the footprint looks like an 8 pin circular TO whatever from
a few decades ago with 2 pins removed. However the diameter of the circle
on which the pins are located is different (much larger), and I've never
seen this package in any library.

I see people use MQ-6 sockets for this kind of sensor.

Yes, I've seen those too. My present application will require that
they be soldered to the board, though.
