But to complete the exercises in this DIY booklet you dont need to worry about the library. Symbols & PCB footprints) that you will require are available in your library. Try them and have fun! The Basic Design Flow Library Usually you need to start off with a library and to ensure that all the parts (schematic I will guide you through the basic design flow of a Schematic design and through some very simple Schematic designs using CADSTAR.
The additional add-ons that are available to you, include CADSTAR 3D which is a unique 3D verification tool for PCB design that provides a complete new concept of PCB Design in a 3D environment or the CADSTAR Variant Manager which enables you to generate variants of a 'master' design (included B.O.Ms and assembly drawings) without having to maintain separate files for each variant.
For really advanced users (industry users) high-speed design features (such as lengthening, delay, impedance, cross-talk, overshoot, reflection etc.) can also be provided in a full standard package or as an optional add-on. The Embedded Route Editor has been designed in general for users who dont use a PCB design tool regularly, and P.R.Editor is for the more advanced users who require more powerful solutions. CADSTAR offers much flexibility in this area by providing manual, semi-automatic and fully automatic routing tools within the Embedded Route Editor or P.R.Editor XR (Place & Route Editor). Routing is an integral part of a PCB design process. After an error-free transfer, CADSTAR helps to place and route your design. CADSTAR is an EDA design tool allowing you to draw a schematic design and transfer the design to a PCB layout environment.

Introduction to CADSTAR The Basic Design Flow Chapter 1 Training It is not difficult to capture a schematic and to design a PCB, but if I was not clear enough, just click on the camera icon every time you come across it, and watch me (you will need an internet connection for this)! Spend some time with me and you will learn a lot in a short time.
The second step I will show you is how to create and add a component to your library.
I will start by showing you a hand drawn schematic design and transforming this to a professional schematic. You will find out in detail how you can make use of CADSTAR to capture a Schematic. If you are seriously thinking about designing a schematic, you have made the right decision to come to me.
To install CADSTAR Schematics, double click on the executable for set-up and simply follow the instructions. CADSTAR 11.0 will be used throughout the course.
This is a course covering the basic use of CADSTAR Schematics. With this booklet, you have received a free copy of CADSTAR Schematics. If you are wondering where this is, take a look at my "home"-page. I am from ZUKEN and it is good to meet you. Hello! My name is DIY-booklet and Im glad to see you have picked me up.
