Actually, a 1020 pin FPGA would be pretty easy to make in Geda. The file format is text-based and completely open. Generating the footprint is dead simple, and you could easily write a simple perl script to read an FPGA vendor's pin list and generate a schematic symbol. This is really the strong side of open source software -- it's incredibly powerful if you don't mind doing a little bit of coding. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
