Schematic Symbols for Integrated Circuits
Read morePin naming, pin setting, and pin arrangement are the 3 most important factors to consider when creating the schematic symbol for an IC device. Considering these aspects will help you create a direct and functional design. At SnapEDA, we developed our own internal standards based on these 3 factors. PIN NAMING To avoid incorrect pin…
