Looking to build schematic symbols smarter and faster?

Wish there was a Symbol tool that could complement the footprint tool from PCBLibraries?

Interested in a method to convert existing Symbols or Libraries to another EDA format?

Wish you could have an EDA-Independent Library that was easy to migrate?

Do you need to support more than one PCB Design flow?

Still searching for a better way to create FPGA symbols and also manage FPGA pin swaps?

 If you answered yes to any one of the six questions, read on…

Features of Symbol Wizard – Basic

•   Adobe plug-in to extract complete tables from PDF files.
•   Ability to automatically assign descriptive  Function Names to hetero symbols
•   Graphical assignment of pins to symbols
•   Automatic Buss recognition and assignments
•   Complex sorting routines  
•   Data Validation to make sure that all entries from datasheet are valid
•   User Preferences so that the finished symbol meets the corporate standard

Features of Symbol Wizard – Standard

All the features of Symbol Wizard - Basic PLUS:

•   Ability to import existing symbols in other EDA formats and then export to your EDA tool of choice.
•   Ability to back-annotate symbols that were built using SM.

Extract PDF Data Sheets

Symbol Wizard™ intelligently extracts and captures the PDF data sheet content and relationships including full tables, correlating and verifying the information. It extends the Adobe Acrobat extraction capability with an advanced API interface for PDF content extraction. Higher level of context extraction includes advanced columnar and table extraction.  For tables which are not clearly defined, templates can be created which extend table extraction to uniform or un-ambugious table definitions.

Symbol Floorplanner

Symbol Wizard™uses advanced schematic symbol floor planning technology to partition and generate complex asymmetrical symbol sets.  Higher level constructs such as pin busses can be extracted as scalars and correlated to busses.  These constructs are then maintained through the asymmetrical symbol partitioning,  generation, and export  process.  Symbol Wizard™ generates full asymmetrical symbol sets for the major EDA vendor formats.
