Hi,
I am trying to use the automatic data for chip pin and pad layouts, that RS and other suppliers now provide.
After a range of error messages I now have the following files downloaded (for PADS I believe, which I understand Proteus can import)
I recognise the .d and .p suffixes.
But I have forgotten / can not track down what I do next to import them into Proteus.
Any help appreciated.
cheers, Beau
Import on the PCB side is from Library Menu - > Import Package.
We tested PADS ASCII Library format from Digikey (and Ultralibrarian) and PADS ASCII Layout format from PCB Library Expect tool. I'm assuming the same formats are available from other vendors but please let me know if problem imports occur and I'll have someone look into it.
Hi Iain,
the problem seem to be the PADS version numbers.
Proteus is looking for a V9.5, the downloaded files are V9.0,
which 'Paul Woolford' of Samacsys,com believes is the most recent version.
If I try and read in : QFN50P500X500X100-33N.d
I get as below
cheers, Beau
