[PCB_FORUM] Re: concept Hdl - symbole editor- creating discrete....

It doesn't look like you have received any answer to your question so I
will make an attempt.

You mention generating symbols for caps and I get the idea that you
create more than 1 cap symbol.

Actually the maximum number of symbols for caps, resistors, or any
discrete part is 4. That is providing

the user community you have wants to be able to place caps in any of the
4 orientations.

This allows for the librarian to control the placement of all of the
properties.

 

When you generate the symbol using part developer, you will get a square
symbol and that is because

the tool knows how to place a body outline around any symbol with pins
but does not know the difference

between a 2 pin resistor and a 2 pin cap.

 

After the Square symbol has been created, you need to descend into the
part and delete the square box and 

draw in the graphics that you need for the part to look like a cap. This
is the process that is needed for any

part that has graphics instead of a square or rectangular body. 

I hope this helps.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] concept Hdl - symbole editor- creating discrete....

 

Hi all,

 

I am using cadence 15.5.1
while generating symbols for caps, i got a squire symbole instead of
standard cap symbol.

so i have to edit squire symbole, and draw the standard caps symbole in
symbole editor.

We have a option for inseart a standard symbols like
res,caps,inductor,relay ect.,in standard 
toolbars.

while picking required symbol, that icon was hiding.So i am not able to
use those tool bars.

Is there any way to use these standard discrete symbols in symbole
ediotr?

Thank u

 

Regards
Felix Paul
