Viewing a .SCH file

Aule Mar
Aule Mar over 15 years ago

I have a .sch file (pgm.sch) that I found on the internet, its a 80C51 programer. It was created in 1995 with Orcad and I would like to View it,  I hav installed both viewers avaliable on your site but niether are capable of viewing a .SCH file.  Do you know of any viewer that will open this file for me.

Thank You

Aule Mar

    This will be a DOS schematic, this will need to be translated to a Windows version OrCAD Capture DSN file before you can view it. If you only have teh SCH file, and no LIB files for the components, only the wires will be translated. You are probably out of luck unless someone can provide you with a ready translated Windows version of the schematic.
