Orcad 9.2 pcb design....

[koolguy]

OK, i have seen that when i build project while slecting schematic led symbol come but not in pcb layout so, tell after creating schematic how to layout of it with netlist??

 

[kubeek]

can you post the dsn file?

 

[koolguy]

Here it is.....

 

[kubeek]

Man you got to be either really lazy or "mentally challenged". I don´t know why I´m still helping you when you cant even f***ing read what I posted and DO IT.
Have you tried netlisitng the goddamn schematic? What errors did you get? I got this:
#1 ERROR(ORCAP-36002): Property "PCB Footprint" missing from instance D3: SCHEMATIC1, mypcb.dsn (2.60, 3.90).

#7 ERROR(ORCAP-36018): Aborting Netlisting... Please correct the above errors and retry.


How many times have I told you you need to assign the footprints to the parts? For example a dio400 footprint will work, but you will probably want to edit it to suit your LEDs.

 

[koolguy]

OK, please tell me the steps to do ...I am bit confused with option coming in window i will follow it!!
for example when i open project>then i have select schematic or Pcb layout wizard???

 

[kubeek]

I select schematic, never used tghe wizard. Then click add part, there is a window with libraries, so click on the button to add libraries and add them all (they are in C:\Cadence\SPB_16.5\tools\capture\library). Add a part for example an LED from the discrete library, place them and connect them. Double click on the part in the schematic, find PCB footprint column and enter for example dio400 in there.
Now click on the project page on the dsn file, then select tools-> create netlist, check create or update PCB and click ok.
It will open the new board, now select place -> manually, check the checkboxes on the parts you want to place now and put them into the board, when you´re done click ok. On the left side use the Add connect tool (F3) to make the connections between the parts. Be sure to check out the three tabs on the right of the screen, where you set layers, width etc in Option, then the Visibility, and Find which toggles which features of the part are selectable, like wires pins names etc. You should end up with about the same board like I posted before.

 

[koolguy]

Now click on the project page on the dsn file, then select tools-> create netlist, check create or update PCB and click ok.

After this Select the product window come what to select here??
example:- Allegero PCB Design or Orcad pCb design/ stand/ prof....what to do here????

 

[kubeek]

Sect any of them, I don´t think the slight differences between the different licenses matter, I usually select the first one.

 

[koolguy]

Add connect tool (F3) to make the connections between the parts. Be sure to check out the three tabs on the right of the screen, where you set layers, width etc in Option, then the Visibility, and Find which toggles which features of the part are selectable, like wires pins names etc. You should end up with about the same board like I posted before.

OK, the board is showing in allegro design XL and if i want the layout Gerber file or in PDF how to do this i have PDF writer installed ...
and please few more thing while designing top and bottom funda...

 

[kubeek]

Ok, you will need to use the Allegro PCB designer licsense. See this tutorial how to do it http://www.referencedesigner.com/tutorials/allegro/allegro_page_9.php it would probably be worth reading and trying out everything that is there for allegro.
Also, use this to check the gerbers produced http://www.easylogix.de/products_detail.php?prog_id=1
You can print to pdf (like for home etching) using the file->plot setup and plot... to print it, it will print what´s visible on the screen.

 

[koolguy]

Also, use this to check the gerbers produced

What to check in Gerber file....

 

[kubeek]

I allways check the gerbers visually to be sure they are in the correct orientation, the names of the layers are correct and so on. Better than being sorry after you get a useless board from a fab house.

 

[koolguy]

OK, I am working on schematic showing this error after design rule check...



after net list create..

Ok, so as for the warnings:
>WARNING(ORCAP-1831): Unconnected pin U1,C\L\R\
wasn´t connected to anything beacuse the VCC wasn´t at the right spot, use R to rotate parts and check they are connected properly
>WARNING(ORCAP-1600): Net has fewer than two connections GND
>WARNING(ORCAP-1600): Net has fewer than two connections VCC
These are for U1, double click it and check the box Power pins visible, then connect to vcc and gnd manually - it is safer than relying on the automatic power connections.

As for the errors, this has to be at least sixth time when you HAVE NOT SET THE ******* FOOTPRINT! Doble click each part and writhe the footprint in to the Pcb footprint property. All parts must have it.

Is anybody else watching this thread? Are you having as much fun as I do? [smiley-vomit.gif]

 

[koolguy]

Hi,

Now i have connected the footprint to led as you said in preevious post and U1 to supply maualy i have no idea of 74164 footprint lib what to write??

here are the error...

[kubeek]

Well, it is a 14 pin DIP package, so look into c:\Cadence\SPB_16.5\share\pcb\pcb_lib\symbols\ directory and take a guess. I can't keep telling you which package to use for what.

 

[koolguy]

OK, I am using this dip14_3 and after creating net list allegro PCB design has opened showing nothing asking this

... It will open the new board, now select place -> manually, check the checkboxes on the parts you want to place now and put them into the board, when you´re done click ok. On the left side use the Add connect tool (F3) to make the connections between the parts. Be sure to check out the three tabs on the right of the screen, where you set layers, width etc in Option, then the Visibility, and Find which toggles which features of the part are selectable, like wires pins names etc. You should end up with about the same board like I posted before.

Do you even read what I write?

I have done this no component seen on screen...,why??

side use the Add connect tool (F3) to make the connections between the parts.

so, how to do this?

 

[kubeek]

When you click the place -> manually, do you see the components in there? Maybe try reading that sentence again and doing EXACTLY as I said. You need to check the checkboxes, place the components and THEN click ok.
