Export Constraints from PCB Designer to Capture

thomasli

Hi

I have designed a board and added some constraints in the schematic. We've passed the design on to an external layouter and he added some missing differential pairs. What is now the correct way to export the new constraints from the board file back into the DSN. I don't want to import any other changes, just the constraints.

    The default way would be to use the Design Sync method OrCAD Capture Forward Back annotation Property Pin Gate Swaps - YouTube and also OrCAD Capture Netlist Design Sync - YouTube but if you only want Constraints then you could try Exporting a Technology file from CM in PCB Editor then Importing this into CM in OrCAD Capture.
