gEDA-user: gEDA in the Blogs

2009-05-12 Thread Stefan Salewski
Just have seen a comment related to gEDA in a Blog of a Gentoo developer: http://stuartl.longlandclan.yi.org/blog/ One criticism I have of gEDA, it seems to treat the schematic and the PCB as being two different things. I find it awkward to move from gschem to PCB and back again when designing

I know there is some kind of sch2pcb script (I haven't tried it myself so I don't know good it works), but I think there does need to be some kind of lvs flow in gEDA. I planned on working on some type of lvs flow between pcb and gschem but I haven't got around to it. On Tue, May 12, 2009 at 5:08

gEDA-user: Signal Source Setup for Electric Guitar?

2009-05-12 Thread Michael B Allen
Hi, What would be a good signal source setup for an electric guitar? I thought I read somewhere an electric guitar could put out 1V so I used the following: * Source (V2 input 0 dc 0 ac 1) V2 input 0 DC 0.0 SIN( 0.00 1.00 440.00 0.00 0.00 ) [Disclaimer: This was entered using gspiceui.]

There is certainly a LVS flow already. gsch2pcb is a program which is among other things is a wrapper around gnetlist which is the gEDA netlister. gnetlist will create a netlist from the schematic. PCB loads the netlist and does a comparison between that netlist and the layout. There is no

As Anthony has already asked, where is a copy of the schematic? I followed your link but haven't found one from there yet. For guitar pickup modelling, you might like to do a bit of Googling on spice model guitar pickup or similar. The first one I found was this

The new flow improves on this - the intermediary tool sends pcb all the should be data, and pcb internally compares with is and makes the needed changes. That includes elements, attributes, footprints, and netlists. ___ geda-user mailing list
