ANNOTATING A SCHEMATIC

archive
archive over 17 years ago

I am a new user of the Allegro tools. I am almost finished with my design and I want to renumber the schematic so that the RefDes' are in sequence. I can annotate the schematic without any problems, but when I import the logic into PCB Editor I get errors and all of the components become unplaced. What is the process of annotating a schematic in Allegro DE CIS and then importing that into Allegro PCB Editor?

     Flow is OrCAD->Allegro->OrCAD

     Renumber your components in Allegro (very quick and easy), then backannotate to the schematic.  NEVER reassign components in the schematic once you've placed them in Allegro.
