[PEDA] Routing a big PGA part

2004-09-16 Thread Website Visitor
Hello,

I am looking for some info and help on a decent routing scheme for a 200+ pin PGA 
socket. I am using only a 2 sided board right now, but wondering if a 4 layer layout 
would be best. Customer wants to go low cost..

Seems you run out of routing room from the inside pins to the outside ones. Not much 
room to drop vias in. 

I thought I might have to pull out the center pins to put in vias, but run into the 
problems again, no routing room.

Any suggestions or visual aids?

Thanks from a new protel99 user!

[PEDA] 99SE XP behaviour

2004-08-19 Thread Website Visitor
Watching already at my 30-day demo of 99SE i see some problems with
selecting a group of components.
I use mouse to select them or use edit-select-inside 
area way. But it only highlights these parts optically, not
really.

Selecting ALL parts on PCB works fine

[PEDA] auto routing with electical limits

2004-08-16 Thread Website Visitor
Is it possible to constrain auto routing of several point to point connections not 
only by geometric limits but also to electical requirements? The resistances of the 
connections are required to maintain specific ratios to each other.

[PEDA] Layer

2004-07-09 Thread Website Visitor
Hi,
 
I'm trying to make rules for some type of component only route in one specific layer 
(bottom or top) in a 2 side board. I'm using the InComponent('designator') function in 
the advanced query and make the constraints for just one type of layer (bottom or top) 
but Protel still route that in 2 two layers.
 
Anybody has any idea?
 
Thanx

[PEDA] Protel 99SE ERC

2003-12-19 Thread Website Visitor
This is a little hard to explain, but here goes...

I am running the ERC on a schematic in Protel 99SE.  It's interesting that there isn't 
a rule for determining whether a port has a mating counterpart.  The Orcad ERC has a 
place where it will verify that all off-page connectors have mating counterparts.  The 
only thing Protel 99 verifies is that the port is connected to something electrical.  
If you had a port that was supposed to match a port on another page, but you mispelled 
one of them, had a space in one of them, etc. you wouldn't know it by using the ERC.  
That seems really strange to me!

[PEDA] PCB Routing GND

2003-10-30 Thread Website Visitor
I have not found a way yet to disable, or stop, Protel from routing GND traces.  I 
have a GND plane and all of the components are connected to it via thermals.  However, 
when ever I use the AutoRouter the program begins routing GND traces.

I have created classes that have all the signals and trace widths associated with them 
but this did not help.  I have disabled the system board routing layer and only 
enabled mine.  But again that did not help.

How do I stop Protel from routing GND traces when I have a GND layer that the 
components are already connected too?

Please respond via the following email:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks in advance,

Brad

[PEDA] How to place non-plated thru holes?

2003-10-30 Thread Website Visitor
Hello --

I was directed to this group as the place where most Protel experts hung out.  I am a 
newbie to Protel and am using Protel99 SE for PCB layout.

My question is simple:  I want to place a non-plated through hole on my design.  I 
want to void out the plane layers around the hole also.  How do I do it?  It appears 
that I can either place a pad or a via, but neither is really a through hole, and it's 
not obvious (to me, at least) that they will correctly void out the plane layer.

Thanks in advance for your wisdom,

Stuart

[PEDA] How do I remove an Internal Plane in 99SE sp6?

2003-10-09 Thread Website Visitor
Hi
I've created a 6 layer board where I've used split planes on 2 internal planes for 
power supply.

When the need came for using some parts of the power planes for normal signal routing, 
I've decided to use Polygon Planes on MidLayers and do the extra signal routing on the 
same layers.

I've added 2 Mid Layers, created the Polygon Planes for power distribution and tried 
to delete the internal planes but ends up with the error message 'InternalPlane1 is 
being used and cannot be removed'. The same error message goes for InternalPlane2.

The former Split Planes have been deleted successfully. InternalPlane 1 and 2 are 
assigned to 'No Net'. What else needs be done to delete the Internal Planes?

[PEDA] Trace Width Charts

2003-09-25 Thread Website Visitor
Hi there,

I'm still a bit green when it comes to layouts. Was hoping someone more experienced 
could point me to some charts comparing the following:
   trace width vs. current capability
   trace width vs. standard wire gauge
Do either of these exist in a easy reference place or are these numbers I need to 
calculate.. And if so, could someone point me down the right path of numbers?

Thanks for you time and patience with my ignorance :)

seen on screen).I find DXPs CAD for making such shapes and mounting very tedious. I 
have tried PCB and PCB lib quickly and given up.Id hoped I could import from CD 
somehow. Even if its only an accurate image on a layer that I can then trace over the 
top of.
any ideas?

[PEDA] Importing other netlists into a Protel 99SE layout..

2003-09-11 Thread Website Visitor
Hi there,

I been digging in the docs and trying experiments to try to get an old old DOS-based 
Orcad netlist into my copy of Protel 99SE so at the least I can do the layout changes 
and not pay someone else to.. My only conclusion is that I will have to manually 
reformat it by hand to a Protel or Protel2 format then import it. Can someone please 
tell me this is not the case and advice to a more intelligent method or am I doomed to 
suffer the loss of income?

Thanks alot for the time!

[PEDA] Split plane / internal layer shortcicuit?

2003-07-01 Thread Website Visitor
Hello forum members.

I'm running protel 99SE sp6

I've made a +5V plane on an internal layer, using a split
plane that covers the entire layer. In the middle of the
layer, I'd like to place another split plane with +3.3V.

Is this safe to do without risking a shortcircuit between
the two split planes or would one need to create an
'inner border' for the +5V plane? How would that be done?

[PEDA] Protel 98 available

2003-06-24 Thread Website Visitor
I placed my Protel 98 distribution on EBay, late last week.

Anyone interested in acquiring Protel DXP, who does not have an earlier version, 
should find it particularly valuable.  Protel is currently upgrading from 98 to DXP 
for $2,995.  List is $7,995.

[PEDA] PCB in Protel

2003-06-21 Thread Website Visitor
Hi,

I have a problem with PCB making in Protel DXP. The final printout appears to be for 
about 40% bigger. For example, I wish my PCB to have the following dimensions; width: 
7cm height: 3cm but when I print it out it becomes width: 10cm and height: 6cm how 
come? Where is the problem?

[PEDA] OrCad to Protel

2003-06-20 Thread Website Visitor
Hi all, I used to use Protel 99SE about 3 years ago. Then with a new
job, the company has Orcad. I've been using Orcad now for the 3 years
and I am absolutely disgusted with it. I'm trying to convince
management to go to Protel. All I wanted to know is how everyone
feels about the new Protel DXP. I really want to switch back to
Protel and any info would be great! Thanks for the replies

[PEDA] 1.12 under XP???

2003-03-28 Thread Website Visitor
Hardlock .CDE files: ... Now, in version 1.12 this file will be identified by the 
Protel for Windows serial number, e.g. S1000999.CDE, etc. This  system allows the 
access codes for each license to be kept either on the server's Windows directory, or 
on the node's Windows directory

OK, I loaded my .cde file into C:\windows and 1.12 says
hardlock device not found. Any Ideas? Trying to run
this old version under XP to get back some very old files.

[PEDA] Find and Replace text feature for Footprint Library.

2003-02-21 Thread Website Visitor
I'm a Newbie around...

Does someone have any macros or scripts which could ease out modifying the Pad 
designators manually in the PCB Library of 99 SE.

For instance,I just can edit globally by coding {C1Â}for selected items in the 
Schematic library. Is there a way I could do this in the PCB library as well using a 
script ?

IS this feature available in Protel DXP.

Pls. advise

Re: [PEDA] Teams, Permissions and shared .ddbs

2001-05-07 Thread Website Visitor

Hi Drew,

I have also been doing the same as you recently and it certainly is difficult to 
administer. We have a similar approach to yours but with  a difference. We have 
experimented with user permissions but haven't really used it properly except for the 
common library. Based on our experiance this is my suggestion to you.

Since it is possible to move libraries from one ddb to another (if they are both open 
on the same workstation, drag and drop from one ddb to another), I suggest that each 
user has his own user library ddb and then have a seperate common 'read-only' library 
which is updated periodically making sure that the new component symbols have the 
right pcb footprint called up. If a new footprint is required then the user can 
generate one when the component symbol is generated, making sure the name given for 
the footprint is not already used in the common footprint library. Updating the common 
library should be done by one designated person who will need to be careful to verify 
that the new components that are added to the comman library are correct in all thier 
detail.

When updating the common library, both the common ddb snd the user ddb are opened and 
the libraries are DD from the user to to common library. This will make a copy of the 
user ddb library in the common ddb. Then each new part in the copy of the 'user' 
library can be moved to an appropriate library in the common ddb, first checking and 
if need be, modifying, to ensure its compatibility and correctness. When all the new 
parts are moved over, the copy of user library can be deleted. 

This is the way I do it and it seems to work well. We did try modifying the common 
library directly but this often resulted in work being lost because of multiple users 
working on the comman library ddb.


I hope this helps

[PEDA] BGA Design

2001-05-07 Thread Website Visitor

Has anyone designed a fine pitch BGA, ~400pin, in
Protel99SE?

If so, what issues or difficulties did you encounter?
Could it be done?

My concern is with Protel's ability and ease of use in
developing a large SMT design with BGAs, multiple via types,
Via shapes, Paste mask aperatures.

ie. how manufacturable the final result would be, how
effective the use of design rules are

Regards,

Colin Weber
