How to cross probe between Live BOM and schematic canvas

DesignTech
DesignTech over 1 year ago

OrCAD X Capture CIS provides an interesting feature to cross probe between Live BOM and schematic canvas, which is available for designs present in your Cloud Workspace. Selecting a component in Live BOM immediately selects the component in OrCAD X Capture and snaps you to a closeup of the same component in the layout in Allegro PCB Editor. This feature saves a great deal of time and energy spent searching for the component.

Follow these steps to cross probe between Live BOM and schematic canvas:

  1. Save the design and choose Tools > Live BOM.
  2. Right Click on the component and select Cross Probe.

3. The component will get highlighted on the schematic canvas as well as in Allegro PCB Editor.

Hope this feature helps you expedite the design creation.

Regards,
