Standard symbols are used to -represent the various gates and components which are interconnected -by nets (wires). Most vector drawing programs can be used for -schematic capture but they usually lack one (or more) of the -following characteristics: - - * The awareness of the electrical properties of components, nets, - and pins. - * Hierarchical design (having components represent some abstracted - functionality). The ability to associate attributes with nets and - components. - * Generate netlists from the schematic. - - These are all critical features (among others which I cannot recall -right now) which are shared by all schematic capture programs. The -schematic capture program which is part of gEDA is called "gschem". |
