PADS to OrCAD to PADS

Discussion in 'Cadence' started by Dewald Stevens, Oct 1, 2003.

  1. Hi,

    Can anyone please tell me if they had any success with and tell me how
    to export OrCAD layout back to PADS. When the new ASC file is opened in
    PADS, it is all a mess. You see the old footprints and the tracks are
    all over the place.

    My procedure:
    1. Import PADS V4.0 pcb to OrCAD Layout 9.2.3 (The ASC file from my
    client imports fine. It is in V1.5 & Basic units)
    2. Edit OrCAD layout (I added new footprints & did some new routing)
    3. Export OrCAD layout back to PADS in ASC file format, using the
    original ASC import file.

    Any help will be of great help.

    Thanks.
