You can add as many schematic sheets to a project. However, it should have a name regarding the specific module or block you wish to design on this single schematic sheet. Save this and give it a unique name just like you did to the project. 9 Figure 9: Creating a Component Figure 10: Blank Component with Pins Figure 11: Adding a Rectangle body (left) and the Final Design (Right) Figure 12: Rectangle Properties Figure 13: Editing Component Properties Figure 14: Editing Component Pin Assignments Figure 15: Finished Schematic Part Figure 16: Package Dimensions Figure 17: IPC Footprint Wizard P a g eģ Figure 18: IPC Footprint Wizard Component Selection Figure 19: Footprint Dimensions Figure 20: More dimension Info Figure 21: Solder Fillet Density Figure 22: Footprint Name Figure 23: Footprint Save Location Figure 24: Final Footprint Figure 25: PCB Component Wizard Figure 26: Component Wizard Component Pattern Figure 27: Finding a Footprint Figure 28: Browsing for Footprints Figure 29: PCB Model Window Figure 30: Schematic of Power Module Figure 31: Changing Passive Component Footprint Figure 32: Adding the 2012 Standard Footprint Figure 33: Wired and Net list connections Figure 34: Power, Ground, Port, and Off Sheet Symbols Figure 35: Creating a Schematic Sheet Symbol Figure 36: Selecting a Schematic Sheet Figure 37: Top Level Schematic with Sheet Symbol Figure 38: Repeated Schematics Figure 39: Project Options Menu Figure 40: Un-routed Schematic Sheets Figure 41: Base Room for Copied Routing Figure 42: Copying Room Formats Figure 43: Copied Room Layout Format P a g eĥ Figure 2: Adding a Schematic Sheet The schematic sheet you added will now be visible under your project name on the left side. 7 Figure 6: Adding a part to your schematic. 6 Figure 4: Datasheet Diagram of LP Figure 5: Adding Parts to your Schematic. 6 Component Design Schematic Component Design PCB Foot Print Design IPC Footprint Wizard PCB Component Wizard Setting a Component s Footprint Creating a Design Adding Parts Connecting Parts Schematic Sheet Symbols Appendix A.1 Repeated Schematic Symbol Design Table of Figures Figure 1: Creating a PCB Project.
