Talking about the "schematic" in TARGET 3001!, we mean the schematic module.
You can reach the schematic module by selecting "creat new PCB with schematic" in the "Start-Assistent" or by using the icon [[Image:GotoSchematic.jpg]] (alternative: F3 key) in the layout view to switch to the schematic module.
A schematic in [[TARGET 3001!]] can have up to 100 [[Page|pages]].You can distribute signals on multiple pages, therefore you need reference symbols. If a signal in the schematic is connected incorrectly, violett lines appear in the schematic.
 
 
The information of a schematic can easily be transferred into a layout.
 
If your current display window is a ????, you can switch to the schematic window by pressing the keycombination [Shift]+[F3]. If a schematic window is already opened, you will be transmitted to it. If not, a new one will be opened. TARGET3001! is able to run 10 windows simultaneously.

Features of the schematic tool in TARGET 3001!

"Schematic"

        



A schematic is a sketch of an electrical logic. It shows the electrical connections between component symbols by the use of signal wires and busses.


Characteristics of the schematic tool in TARGET 3001!:


  • each 1.2m x 1.2m in size (equals 47.24 x 47.24 inches)
  • up to 100 pages in one schematic
  • extensive SQLite Component database containing over 40.000 symbols DIN/IEEE local on your computer
  • free access to database updates within the same version number (internet connection required)
  • easy component search and placement of symbols with automatic numbering
  • symbols in the schematic can freely be edited at any time, independently from the database
  • easy wiring by the use of a grid and "snap on"-function in schematic and layout
  • Schematic router
  • variants of assembly supported
  • more than one schematic open at the same time - allows easy cut&paste between designs
  • shift highlighted schematic elements to a different schematic page on button click
  • star shaped signals in schematic possible
  • bus-assistant for easy placement of similar signals
  • move a schematic element to back- or foreground (in the context menu)
  • currents in schematic can be displayed with values
  • parts of a schematic or layout can be saved as a module
  • easy reworking of a schematic: gate swap, pin swap
  • renaming, renumbering as well as pin and gate swap automated in schematic and layout
  • automatic electrical rule check
  • connecting a signal to another in the schematic changes all the tracks in the PCB, too
  • read in of netlists in OrCAD*-Multiwire and Mentor*-format, TARGET-ASCII and Gerber*-format
  • individual creation of BoMs and netlists in Protel*, OrCAD* and Calay* format
  • individual creation of Boms and netlists for your purchasing dept, for E-Test or assembling automats, with ordering numbers, prices or customized individual properties
  • parts of the schematic can be copied for other jobs
  • pSpice compatible simulation included
  • your project documentations work in three languages
  • Printing of the schematic by the print dialog in menu "File".
  • images in schematic/layout possible


The meaningof "schematic" in TARGET 3001!

A schematic in TARGET 3001! can have up to 100 pages. A schematic can be transferred to a layout.
You reach the schematic mode in TARGET 3001! using the icon:

How to import a component from the library browser
How to wire the pins of a component


Special: No forward/backward annotation (reannotate) between schematic and layout needed. Every change you make is noticed directly on the other side. Single source principle. No conflicts of project versions. Easy to learn: Nearly every command identical in schematic and PCB.
