orcad capture to pads logic
Hi all,
My previous experience was with PROTEL DXP where everything is integrated. I am not asking this question as newbie of PCB design. Is due to "culture shock" in using different EDAs.
I would like to do my schematics capture using Orcad Capture CIS while doing my PCB layout using PADS2005 SPAC2.
My questions is: How should I correlate the footprint information from Orcad to PADS? should I design all footprint using ORCAD layout, then have my Schematics done in Orcad Capture, then export it in EDIF 200 format.
Afterthat use PADS to import the EDIF 200 information for layout?
or is that anyway where I can do it in a easier way ?
