If the PDF Font list is empty click Refresh and Save the board when asked a. Place the component approximately as shown on the picture of 27Ģ0 Creating PDF documentation It is very simple to create PDF documentation with the PDF Generator. Use the Middle Mouse button to pan on the PCB working area and press r to rotate P1 d. As a result P1 will be selected in the Placement dialog and attached to the cursor c. Alternatively split the screen between OrCAD Capture and PCB Editor b. With the Placement dialog open swap back to the schematic and use left mouse button to select P1 i. Do the following and see picture on next page a. Often connectors are placed close to the board outline, instead of selecting the connector in the list cross-placement from OrCAD Capture will be used to select the P1 on the schematic. Component Placement or use shortcut p or use 21. Press Home or Click the toolbar icon to fit the outline in the working area 20. When a component is selected for placement the footprint is needed and a warning is given in case it does not exist. PCB Editor does not require all footprints to be designed before starting the PCB Design process. Placing components Although the netlist is loaded into the board there are no component placed. If more granularity is needed more constraint sets can be created by Right clicking on the constraint set name and choosing Create Spacing/Physical Constraint Set. Save the board using File Save or Ctrl + s Note: The settings above could have been done in the template since nothing was depending on specific net names. Close Constraint Manager using File Close or Ctrl + F4 18. These can set in the template made in Appendix A of 27Ħ 16. All boards will require default settings for spacing, trace width and via types. All nets use the Default Constraint Set until changed. In the Net section all the nets are listed including a reference to a Constraint Set that is defined in the Constraint Set folder. Similar settings can be found for Spacing constraints. Right click the column and select Analysis Mode to enable online DRC for that constraint. Below are shown the key physical constraints, if a column is yellow it shows that online DRC is disabled for that constraint. This is the place where any default constraints can be set and if nothing else is changed in Constraint Manager these settings (constraints) are used. Constraints are split into sections - Physical where cline (trace/route) width and via types are defined - Spacing where distances (airgap) between objects on different nets are defined - Same Net Spacing where distances between objects on the same net are defined - Manufacturing where fabrication oriented rules are defined (e.g., silkscreen to pad) - Electrical where differential pairs, impedance, length and matched lengths are defined For Physical and Spacing there are a Constraint Set folder which contain a constraint set named Default. This short introduction to constraint manager can be skipped if you want to set the constraints now. When you understand the concept behind the constraint manager it is very easy to use. 8 Routing your design Adding Teardrops Checking status before creating output Creating production data (Post processing) Creating PDF documentation What did you learn? There is much more to learn in OrCAD PCB Editor Keyboard shortcuts Appendix A: Creating a template board file Use the PCB flow menu to create the board template Setup units and size of working area (canvas) Setting up Cross section of the PCB Setting colors Setting up grid settings of 27Ĥ Constraint Manager basics Constraint Manager let you define, view and validate constraints while working. 1 Importing the schematic design into the board template. Table of Contents Creating a PCB Design with OrCAD PCB Editor. The Lowpass Filter schematic made with OrCAD Capture CIS is used for the PCB Design. The guide will make use of the PCB Flow menu that is part of this workshop material.
