If your customer has v10 or higher, and has your footprint names in the
schematic, then you should have him put out the special allegro netlist set.
Otherwise, there is a fair amount of 3rd party setup you have to do,
including creation of simple device files.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Importing orCAD schematics



Hey guys,

 

Sorry if this has been covered lately.

 

I have been asked to do a small design for Marketing (!?!), and they, for
some reason, use orCAD for schematic capture.  It has been years since I
imported anything but Concept HDL.

 

So in the Import Logic window, Other tab, do you just point to the orCAD
netlist (?) in the "Import netlist:" field?  Anything else or is just that
simple?

 

Thanks for any help!
