Power net portal is a special schematic object used to define a power or ground net. Power ports allow you to conveniently indicate a power net at any location in the design. Power nets of the same designator automatically connect throughout your design #portal #power
A generic fixed inductor for rapid developing circuit topology. *You can now change the footprint and 3D model at the top level anytime you want. This is the power of #generics
Hey, I’m Copilot, your AI design assistant. I can help you brainstorm ideas, debug problems, research components, and even make wiring connections for you. Ask me questions like:
@copilot I'm designing a PCB for a medical device that measures heart rate and temperature. Can you give me the list of components I will need?
@copilot How would I connect these parts to make the LED flash at 1kHz?
@copilot can you choose 4 digital pins on the ATMega328P-AU that I have here to use as GPIO given that I am already using some pins for reset, the external clock, UART, and I2C.
Chat with me by tagging @copilot on comments or in the chat.
To add a 40-pin header to your project in Flux, follow these steps:
Add the Component:
Search for a 40-pin header in the Flux parts library. You can use search terms like "40-pin header" to find a generic header or specify particular characteristics if you have a specific header in mind.
Place the Component:
Once you find it, place it on your schematic. Make sure it aligns with the rest of the components in your project.
Assign Designators:
Assign an appropriate designator to the header, e.g., HDR1. The designator helps identify it within your schematic.
Make Connections:
Connect the header pins to the corresponding components or nets in your design. Here’s a basic template to illustrate how you might connect a few pins:
Connect HDR1:1 to VCC.
Connect HDR1:2 to GND.
Connect HDR1:3 to A.
Connect HDR1:4 to B.
Manage Unused Pins:
If any pins are not used, consider connecting them to ground or a no-connect symbol as per your design requirements.
Annotation and Documentation:
Make sure to annotate your schematic to specify the header pin numbers and their functions. This ensures clarity in your design.
