draw address and databus
|
Hello,
I'm a kicad beginner and want to use multiple sheets. I want to connect address bus onto one page to address bus onto second page. i have tried to follow the getting started in kicad guide.pdf The only different is that there is everything onto the same page. I have replaced the label by a global label on the bus but no connection is created. How can i solve this? thanks in advance |

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý? Hi ? Each hierarchical sheet is treated like an independent entity. Just check if you put the same global label in all the address bus sections on the different sheets. ? ? Best regards Jorge ? ? De: kicad-users@... [mailto:kicad-users@...] Em nome de kplaetevoet ? ? Hello, |

First of all look at the sample projects, several use multi-sheet drawings. There are different ways to pass signals between pages.? One way is to use global labels (this should be reserved for really global things, like GND). The normal way is to use sheet labels: 1. create new sheet (place it somewhere in the main sheet) 2. enter the new sheet 3. create some circuit and add some hierarchical labels (each of them must have unique name on one sheet) 4. navigate back to main sheet (right click and select "LEAVE SHEET" for example) 5. zoom in on box representing new sheet (one that we just left, the one with
circuit and hierarchical labels) 6. rightclick on the box and select "IMPORT SHEET PINS" and place the pin at one of the box edges 7. repeat step 6 until all pins are imported 8. finish wiring of the main sheet Ivica From: kplaetevoet To: kicad-users@...
