> * make the pins 100 units long. Isn't the standard 300 mils (3 grid steps) long?
> For rectangular parts What my script did was: * pin numbers are centered above or right of the center of the pin (using alignment settings to help), 50 mils away from the pin. Similar to yours, I suppose. I think it would make more sense to use your convention for left/right pins at least. How do you place pin numbers when there's an inversion bubble? * pin labels are inside the box, 50 mils away from the box edge, centered on the pin. Also similar to yours. > * group related pins 200 units apart. A minimum space of 300 units between > pin groups. Spec says 400 units for related pins. I used 800 units (i.e. skip a pin) to separate groups. > * I try to keep inputs on the left, outputs on the right, power on > the top, and ground on the bottom. Me too. > * I usually place the refdes in the upper left corner and the mfg > part number in the lower left corner. What about other notes, like generic part type (i.e. RAM size)? I chose centered in the box so I could list as many as needed.
