Hi,

I think the suggestion was that many of us on this list also have PADS and
could translate the database from binary to ASCII for you if you were able
to release the database to someone who could do this.

Regards,

Austin

  Tony,

  I think that the our customer oursourced to a company that used PADS.  Now
they are running Allegro and I dont' think they have access to PADS either.
I will ask the Engineer to see if they have anyone in the company working
with PADS.  Thank you for the ideas.

  Thank you,

    Seiji,

    You could ask if you can get the database in ASCII format. Is that am
option?

    Hi Shiva,

    The evaluation program does not allow me to use the File/Export command.
I think that there is no way to get around this :(

    Please let me know if there are other options.

    Thank you

      Hi seiji

      Place all the cmponents using eco in pads and then export to ascii
format and now u can import that into allegro and do export libraries. hope
this helps.

      Regards
      shiva.

        Is the PADS database in binary or ASCII? If it is ASCII  then you
can read the database into Cadence Allegro and then extract the library
from
        that. If it is binary then I think you are out of luck.

        Thanks

        Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Extracting symbol  from PADs then into Allegro


        Hi all,

        I recently received a PADS board with a symbol I would like to
extract if it's possible. The customer does not have a datasheet for  this
part for some reason and wants me to extract the data from the PADs  board.
We do not have PADS and I have downloaded the evaluation from  Mentor.  Is
it possible to export this library and import into allegro  format or does
anyone have a better suggestion?

        Any help would be appreciated.

        Thank you in advance.
        Seiji
