[PCB_FORUM] Allegro Module Reuse Question...

Hi,

I am about the attempt to use Allegro Module Reuse for a set of components consisting of an FPGA as well as many passive components associated with it. This will be repeated many times...

In going through a quick tutorial regarding Module Reuse, it mentions when *Annotating* the part references in Capture / Allegro Design Entry:

"In the Action section select either:
a. Incremental - If checked, Capture updates parts with a question mark in the
part reference.
b. Unconditional - If checked, Capture updates all parts in the selected
schematic pages. Both part reference and package information may be
updated on existing parts. Parts on different schematic pages are not
packaged together."

It's this last line that has me stumped. Does this mean that if I have a large part such as an FPGA scattered across several pages, I cannot use Allegro Design Reuse since "Parts on different schematic pages are not packaged together."?


Thanks,

Danny Simpson
