Features of the schematic tool in TARGET 3001!

Sch2.png "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!:



The meaning of the term "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: GotoSchematic.jpg

How to create a schematic in TARGET 3001! (Crash Course)
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.
