Replace footprint

Sofia Gualdino

Hello!!

I'm doing a PCB board on Cadence 16.3 PCB Editor, and I want to replace a footprint of one component, is it possible?

Thanks

 Sofia

    The best way would be to go to the front end tool and modify the pcb footprint property, re-create the netlist and then import the netlist into PCB Editor. The fottprint will change.

    If your footprint is incorrect and you want to make changes load the footprint, make the change then use Place - Update symbols command to refresh the design.
