The Package Variant Name<\/strong> will be directly shown in the Technology Name, therefore i named the Variants in my example\u00a00603, 0805<\/em> and so on. The Prefix<\/strong>\u00a0of the Device will be Name of the Part in the Schematic trailed by a ongoing unique Number. Here it will be starting with R1, R2 etc. The Description<\/strong> can contain html formatted Information, and is useful for containing links to Datasheets of used Parts in the technologies. And at last the most important, creating technologies. For example think of a 0603 Resistor, in values 1kOhm and 100kOhm. These would be the\u00a0Technologies<\/strong> (i created here some more technologies for later use) in the Package Variant 0603. After adding these technologies you can easily add attributes<\/strong> and fill in the Information for every technology and every attribute. If you include an attribute <\/strong>called Value<\/strong>, the placed technology would automatically set this value for the part in schematic and layout editor. Some Attributes which should always be added<\/em><\/strong> for a complete BOM export: additional Attributes for faster part choice which i use in some other devices could be:<\/p>\n POWER (rated Power) If you keep all that in mind when creating a new Device you will get a sweet Bill of Materials with every Information you need with one easy click. To see such a sample BOM only created by filling in all listed attributes in every device you will get something like this:<\/p>\n [wpfilebase tag=file id=21 \/]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If you have a part symbol and package set up properly you\u00a0can go on with setting up a new\u00a0device and the devices technologies. In the Device Editor you have to create a new Device and add a Symbol (by simply). To have an easy example we will start with an simple 2\u00a0terminal resistor, and call … Continue reading [Tutorial] Creating Part Devices using technologies<\/span> ![\"Library_Device_Variants\"](\"http:\/\/mentin-blog.azurewebsites.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/Library_Device_Variants.png\")
