Libraries can be stored separately then installed in CircuitStudio as permanently available libraries.Library files can be added to a design project, where they will be available for use whenever the project is loaded.In CircuitStudio, individual schematic and PCB library files can be used in a several ways depending upon requirements: To check the PCB models attached to a component in an existing schematic design, open its properties dialog (double-click the symbol or choose Properties from its right-click context menu) and note the references in the Models region. When a schematic design is transferred to the PCB domain (through the Update PCB process), CircuitStudio will locate and place the PCB model(s) defined by the schematic component’s model link(s). This unified component format means that its schematic representation provides all the information required to implement a component in both the schematic and PCB design domains. The base schematic component definition in a Schematic Library includes links to suitable PCB models in a PCB Library, satisfying both domains with a unified component.
PCB model definitions are similarly stored in a PCB Library ( *.PcbLib), where its constituent models are linked to by the symbol (component) definitions in a Schematic Library. etc.,) are collectively stored in a Schematic Library file ( *.SchLib) that can be loaded in CircuitStudio. Schematic component definitions (composed of a symbol, model links, parameters. In CircuitStudio, this schematic representation of the component also provides a range of optional properties, parameters and links to a PCB footprint pattern – or more correctly, a 2D and/or 3D model that physically represents the component on a PCB. The initial task in this part of the design process is generally capturing its circuitry in a schematic, where a placed component provides a graphical symbol that includes the component’s electrical connection points defined by pins. Components are ‘wired’ together to form the complete design. In its common form, a component is generally composed of a logical symbol that is applied to the design’s schematic and a footprint pattern (model) that will physically represent the component on the PCB. A component is the general name given to a part that can be placed into an electronic design during the design capture process.
