Pricing: 1,350 GBP  (1,950 EUR)
Course Part Number:  052034

Description

The Design Architect/Library Management System suite of tools provides the logic engineer with the most advanced technology available for schematic capture and hierarchical design. You will examine every step of the schematic and library process in lectures; including hierarchical schematic capture, symbol creation, library structure and design viewpoint generation as well as library data management. You will learn the use of the "To_Layout" utility, which provides an automated process for packaging schematic designs for board layout. Lab exercises are designed to give you hands-on experience and reinforce the design process steps covered in the lecture.

You will learn how to

• Create and edit a schematic for a hierarchical design using the DA_LMS Parts selector to select parts from LMS libraries
• Create and edit component symbols
• Create and edit properties on a symbol and schematic
• View a sheet within the context of a design
• Build shopping lists and replacement list of LMS parts
• Update and replace parts in your design
• Query catalog files for usable parts
• Successfully check and save a schematic design
• Package schematic design using the To_Layout utility

Hands-On Labs

Throughout this course, extensive hands-on labexercises provide you with practical experience in using DA_LMS under theguidance of our expert instructors. Hands-on lab topics include:
