How do you assign multiple resistors to one library part?

Hi,

You can link the components with the database part using the "Link Database Part" option which can be done from either Part Manager (Right click on design in project explorer> Part manager).

You can select multiple components and do right click> Link database part from Project Manager.

You can also link from schematic by selecting the component> right click> Link database part

OrCAD Capture CIS/Allegro design entry CIS/ any license with CIS is needed for CIS database operations.

Yes your understanding is correct, you can create your own database with your desired parameters and link the components. You can also find the sample database bench.mdb present at location C:\Cadence\SPB_22.1\tools\capture\samples and use it for reference.

You can check the below document regarding configuring database with Capture CIS.

Hi Akshay,

Thank you for the response.

I've right clicked on the DSN file for my project but I don't seem to get part manager as an option? Am I doing something wrong?

The possible reason for this is that you have selected the OrCAD Capture license (instead of OrCAD Capture CIS) as shown below:

To fix this, close the project first by File>Close, then change the license using the File>Change product option. Select OrCAD Capture CIS/Allegro design entry CIS/ or any license with CIS option and then try.

Thank you so much for your help!
