How to delete unconnected pins?

Prasanna

Hello,

The tool I am using is Orcad16.0.  Is there any way to delete the pins of symbol?

*we can modify the footprint( .DRA) file and can update in  .BRD file

But my problem is I am converting a design from PADS to ORcad. In PADS design there are few Relays has got 8 pins. But pin number assigned as 1,2,5,8,9,12,15,16 and other pins(3,4,6,7,10,11,13,14)not placed.

When I imported in Orcad, its getting all 16 pin for that relay and due to appearance of unconnected pins its getting lots of error.

Then I exported design to linrary to get all footprint. I  modified related footprint and uploded, but its reporting error about missed pin because i have removed unconnected pins from that footprint.


Can anybody please suggest me to remove unconnected pins ?

 

Thanks,

Prasanna

    Hi Prasanna,

    I am not an expert but I tell you the procedure which I follow.

    We can not save component with missing pin numbers(may be I am Wrong) so I create part in orcad with serial wise numbering like 1,2,3.4 and in the pin name option put the actual pin number 1,2,5,8,9,12,15,16 , then you can save the part.

    May be it'll help you.
