    how to draw a line in concept HDL ?

    Are you confusing concept HDL with something like VHDL? Concept HDL is a schamatic capture software. I don't think he's looking for an algorithm to draw a line with a PLD. Or do you want to say he must program the function to draw a line himself, because concept HDL can't do it?

    How to create vias in copper pour areas or planes without thermal relief using OrCAD?

    Re: orCad... double-click on the via in the padstacks spreadsheet, check "flood planes".

    Which PCB tool to choose?

    I only know 99SE Pro: -Easy to learn Contra: -Badly programmed (slow compared to others on same system). -Bad routing tools (not even parallel movement of segments is possible). -If you move a routed component , it gets disconnected from the routing tracks. -Every copper pour must be...

    About Power Plane in double layers

    Use the space you have for GND pour. Low impedance ist most important for GND, as it is the reference for the signals. For the supply voltages use thick traces and bypass caps.

    Specctra and Layout aren't handy for manuel routing.

    I don't think there's a way to make specctra zoom exactly like Layout. The problem in specctra is, that when you press ESC more often than necessary, the mouse zoom will be disabled. You can fix this problem if you define a key for the command that restores the zoom function. Unfortunately, I...

    Specctra and Layout aren't handy for manuel routing.

    You can save shortcuts for most actions in your *.do file. All actions you do are listed in the *.did file and at the bottom of the screen. You can copy a command and paste it to the "assign key" window, where you can assign a key to the command. You must reload the keys for each sesion. Best...

    Fanout Spectra or Layout for BGA chip

    Re: Fanout Spectra or layout Specctra is way better at doing fanout than layout , especially for BGAs. Don't use Layout for that. Just try to understand what all the parameters and options are for, to get the best results. It's all explained in the Specctra help. :wink:

    What's the most user-friendly CAD tool?

    Re: CAD ease of use Ever tried Tina Pro from Designsoft? It's easy to use, but somewhat less powerfull than Pspice, I think. It also costs only about one tenth of Pspice. A nifty feature it has is that you can generate formulas from circuits. Personally, I like it very much. You can download a...

    Help me with using Spectra to exit long SMD pads

    Specctra and pin exits Hi I want specctra to exit long SMD pads, like those of a TSSOP case, only at the narrow side, but at the same time it should exit nearly quadratic pads, like those from resistors and caps, at any of the four sides. What's the easiest way tho set these rules? Regards...

    How to convert bmp/jpeg into dxf for Silkscreen layer?

    Re: Silkscreen layer Try WinTopo. It can vectorize bitmaps and export them as dxf. The Small version is free.
