There is a lot of different schematic software on the market. Most is designed for a special application like entry for simulation, schematic supported layout generation or just for documentation. Some software is limited to PCB or to IC circuits. The SchematicEditor does not have these limitations and combines all listed applications. Futhermore is can be used for a Parametric Mask Layout together with the LayoutEditor. This makes it a versatile tool for all types of applications -- IC, MEMS, PCB, Microwave, .. Prepare to be impressed!
- From what I understand, EDIF is too low-level (there is no portable way to represent a memory). EDIF is really a netlist format, without predefined cells. RTLIL looks higher level and I think it could be generated by ghdl synth. Would that be useful? I am not sure.

- The LayoutEditor can have up to 3 netlists for any cell of the deisgn. The netlists are separated by its origin. So a netlist for any cell can be loaded from a netlist file, taken from the SchematicEditor or be extracted from the cell. Each of these netlist can be viewed with the TextEditor in any supported netlist format and stored to disk.
EDIF 200 parsing finished Design has no schematics = OrCAD Schematic will not be created Design library has no Symbols = OrCAD library will not be created Comment = Maybe you are converting Netlist project. I double checked with the CAD guy doing the exportation and it is a schematic and not a netlist file.
Designing Schematics
A comfortable editing with a intuitive user interface is important for a SchematicEditor as well. The design of the user interface in the SchematicEditor is similar to the LayoutEditor. So also here an outstanding usability is achieved, plus a big synergy effect, if you use both LayoutEditor and SchematicEditor. How to disable quick access windows 10 free. Apr 28, 2017 STEP 2: Edit the registry to delete Quick access from File Explorer. To do this, follow these steps: To do this, follow these steps: Simultaneously press the Windows key and the letter R. Jun 20, 2018 Quick Access is a new feature in Windows 10 File Explorer navigation pane. In Windows 8.1 Explorer Navigation Pane, you had Favorites, but now Quick Access. Jul 06, 2017 Windows 10 introduced the Quick Access view to File Explorer. Whenever you open a File Explorer window, you’ll see a list of frequent folders and recently accessed files, as well as show frequent folders under the Quick Access item in the navigation pane. But you can disable all that if. Nov 30, 2018 Windows 10 is packed with handy features. Few of them, however, may be considered unnecessary or annoying by some users. For instance, you may want to disable the Quick Access feature in order to give File Explorer a much cleaner look. With that being said, let us now take a look at the first method to disable Quick Access in Windows 10. Method 1: Disable Quick Access. Here are the steps which you need to follow in order to disable quick access on your Windows 10 PC. First of all, you need to go to the File Explorer on your Windows 10. |
Supported File Formats
Versatility is not just a question of available feature, but in particular a question of cooperation with other software. In order to achieve the maximum possible here, a large number of file formats for schematics, netlists and libraries are supported. Thus, for example a schematic created with LTspice can be loaded into the SchematicEditor directly. (see screen shot on the right). |
Besides its own format for storing schematics and libraries these file formats are supported: |
OpenAccess, EDIF, Qucs, LTSpice, SVG, JPG, .. |
Additional any text based netlist format can be created. Just a simple setup is required to define a further format. Also any schematic can be converted to the layout window. So it can be exported to a wide range of graphic formats for documentation. |
Simulation
A common design flow is to design a circuit, simulate and optimize it, create a layout and verify it. To follow this flow the simulation part in the LayoutEditor/SchematicEditor is missing. But this is not a problem as the SchematicEditor works together with many external simulators. So the circuit can be simulated with more than one simulator and the simulation results can be compared. The simulation can be triggered from inside the SchematicEditor. Doing so a netlist will be generated, the simulator be called and after completion a wave form viewer can be called by the SchematicEditor. The hole sequence is controlled by a macro and can simple be adjusted by anyone. Complete and tested macros are shipped for some common simulators like HSPIE, LTspice, ngspice or Qucs and need no more (or minimal) setup to use. |
Schematic Driven Layout
Creating a layout from a schematic is a widespread task where EDA software is used. The SchematicEditor is linked with the LayoutEditor, which enables a comfortable schematic driven layout. Place/choose a device in the schematic window and simple move the mouse to the layout window to get the corresponding device design. Select a node in one window and it is displayed in the other window. These features support the design without restricting a free custom design. |
Open Edif File
Layout Versus Schematic
Validating a design is normally one of the last steps. The combination LayoutEditor with SchematicEditor supports this. A netlist can be extracted for a build-in or external layout versus schematic (lvs).The build-in LVS make it very simple to follow up an error. |
Documentation and more
There is much more to say about SchematicEditor features. Please have a look into the documentation especially on the list of all Schematic Features. Or just try it out and be impressed! |
Still anything missing? No problem! New ideas to improve the SchematicEditor are always welcome! Please leave a note or contact: [email protected] |
