Hi Bill,

This is actually how one of our designers are handling it. But I was hoping
to not modify a part.

But this does get it in the BOM and annotated on the board in some fashion.
Silkscreem, modified pins etc.

 

 

Thanks for your input.

Mark

Hi, 

How about creating a footprint of the holes and putting a Do Not Stuff
property on the part?

This way the holes will be placed correctly and connected to the correct
nets but no part is attached. 

You could add silk to the holes to indicate proper connections and also
assembly notes. 

 

Regards,

Bill Zembek

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] parts in schematic and BOM, but not brd

 

Hi group,

How can I get a part in the schematic to NOT package to the brd, but WILL be
in the BOM?

I tried COMMENT_BODY=TRUE, but this excludes from the brd AND bom.

 

Also, If you add a part to schematic that will be "sky-wired" meaning hand
solder leads to a hole on board or lead to wire to board etc.

We want the part in schematic and BOM, but not board.

 

Thanks in advance,

Mark
