16.5

  • Forcing via connections

    I have a multi-layer design with multiple ground plane layers. But these have issues with ground loops. How can I set something in PCB Editor 16.5 that will only connect vias to one ground plane layer and leave all other layers unconnected, so that I can use a single ground connection point.

  • Customer Support Recommended - Instance and Occurrence Modes of Design Annotation using OrCAD Capture

    Assigning reference designators for the schematic instances is a very vital part of the entire PCB flow. This can sometimes become very cumbersome, and in some cases users allocate a major portion of their time and effort to get the assignments correct and optimized. Annotation is the automated process...

  • How to import and export constraints from Allegro PCB to Excel

    We have some complex and large constraints files to use for our designs and it would make life a lot easier if the constraints could be downloaded to excel, modified and then reloaded back into the design. Is there any way that this can be done.

  • DRC T error

    I have a DRC error saying that T's allowed is set to pads and vias only. Where do I change this to allow T's anywhere?

  • Generating a BOM

    Has anyone generated a BOM from OrCAD like this? I use version 16.5 here. I get close with variant report but I am not there yet. Any suggestions would be very welcome.

  • DXF import into Allegro 16.3 / 16.5

    I have used dxf imports before in Layout 15.7 and we had a simple way to use layers for the basic designs and then import a v12 dxf. But when I try to develop a basic board outline for Allegro 16.3 or 16.5, there does not appear to be a way of importing the plated and non-plated holes into a PCB. What...

  • Customer Support Recommended – Regulation Loop Design Using Allegro AMS Simulator (PSpice)

    Feedback regulation loops are widely used by power electronic designers. It is one of the most important and sensitive parts of a power supply circuit. An incorrect feedback loop design may cause oscillations in the circuit, and also increase the output voltage droops. In order to achieve a stable and...

  • Static shapes not displaying solid.

    I have a couple of shapes used for edge protections etc which are static shapes to ensure that tracks do not destroy the protection provided. But when I try to see them onscreen, the filled area is a mesh of dots instead of a solid area. If I switch it to a dynamic shape, the display shows a solid area...
