gEDA-user: If you also think the PCB lower-case letter 's' is ugly, here's a replacement

Hi all, I've always hated the lower-case letter 's' in PCB, but couldn't come up with a better one until now. And if anyone knows where I could put it to make gsch2pcb use it, I'd be much obliged. Cory Symbol('s' 10) ( SymbolLine(0 50 20 50 8) SymbolLine(20 50 25 45 8)

gEDA-user: control verilog module parameter order when converting .sch and .sym with gnetlist?

Hello mailing list, I need some help here. I want to use gschem to create a hierarchical design and simulate that using icarus verilog. gnetlist -g verilog works fine, but I have some trouble figuring out how to create a matching symbol for the schematic and using gnetlist to

gEDA-user: Different slot types within on symbol

2010-11-21 Thread Oliver King-Smith
Is it possible to create a symbol with two types of slots. For example, in a 4 OR gates logic chip, one slot type would be the OR gate, while the other slot type would be the power connections. I see people typical wire the pins that are not part of a slot to nets, but that seems

If it was me, I think I'd make a script for some 3D modelling package like FreeCAD to generate a 3D model using PCB's XY place file output. The process would be: 1. make FreeCAD 3D models for each of the components 2. generate an XY place file, board outline file and drill file in PCB 3.

Hi Chris, Last time I checked, when netlisting a schematic, the gEDA Verilog netlister does not order the top MODULE portnames by user specified sequence order(such as using the refdes attribute's numeric suffix value of I/O PADS to order the portnames). Since most Verilog simulators (including
