CAE Gate Decal Library Help
CAE Gate Decals are used to specify the
graphical information associated with gates
of a part in the schematic.
Each decal contains information on the
outline; default location of the ref-des,
parttype name and the pad/pin locations.
All text sizes and line widths are in units
of 0.001 inch.
All co-ordinate values are in units of
0.002 inch.
-------------------------------------------
The format for a Decal items is:
-------------------------------------------
(Items that are not in capital letters are
Optional)
DECALNAME X Y PIECES TERMS text
RDX RDY RDO RDJ PTX PTY PTO PTJ ...
... VLX VLY VLO VLJ TLX TLY TLO TLJ
VIS RDH RDW PTH PTW
{for each piece in outline ...}
PIECETYPE NUMCRNS
{for each corner in piece ...}
X Y {for line segment corner}
or
X Y A1 A2 Z LX LY UX UY {for each arc segment}
...

...
------------------------------------------
>DECALNAME X Y PIECES TERMS text
DECALNAME : User defined name (max 16 chars)
X,Y : origin of the symbol
PIECES : Number of pieces in the decal
outline
TERMS : Number of terminals in the
Decal.
text : number of text strings associated
with the decal item (optional).
------------------------------------------
> RDX RDY RDO RDJ PTX PTY PTO PTJ ...
... VLX VLY VLO VLJ TLX TLY TLO TLJ
Substitute as follows:-
** <name>
RD Reference Designator
PT Part Type
VL Value
TL Tolerance
**X **Y : Default x & y location of <name>.
**O : Default orientation of <name>
permitted values - 0 & 270 degrees.
**J : Default justification of <name> -
Bit 0: 0 = Left, 1 = Right.
Bit 1: 0 = Bottom, 1 = Top.
Bit 2: 0 = Left or Right, 1 = Center.
Bit 3: 0 = Bottom or Top, 1 = Middle.
------------------------------------------
> VIS RDH RDW PTH PTW
VIS : Default display values for names
If bit is set then don't display.
Ref-Des - bit 0
Part Nm - bit 1
Value - bit 2
Tolerance - bit 3
Pin Num - bit 4
RDH: Ref-Des text height.
RDW: Ref-Des text line width.
PTH: Part Type text height.
PTW: Part Type text line width.
------------------------------------------
> PIECETYPE NUMCRNS WIDTH
PIECETYPE: Type of piece being described.
OPEN - segments are open ended.
CLOSED - segments form closed shape
1st & last corners same.
CIRCLE - piece must have two corners
which describe the diameter.
COPOPN - same as OPEN.
COPCLS - filled shape.
NUMCRNS: Number of corners in the piece.
WIDTH : Line width to draw the piece outline.
------------------------------------------
> X Y
or
> X Y A1 A2 Z LX LY UX UY
X,Y: x,y coordinate of corner
A1: start angle in degrees of the arc
A2: angle in degrees subtended by arc.
Z: not used.
LX LY UX UY: rectangle around circle on
which the arc is described.
------------------------------------------
> X Y ORI HEIGHT LWIDTH
X,Y: position of text relative to the
decal origin.
ORI: rotation of text (0 or 270).
HEIGHT: height of the text.
LWIDTH: line width used to draw the text.
------------------------------------------
> TEXT
TEXT: string of text associated with the
lines item
------------------------------------------
> T X Y PNUMX PNUMY PNAMX PNAMY TFLAGS PINDECAL
X Y : Location of the terminal relative
to the decal origin.
PNUMX PNUMY : Location of the pin number
relative to the terminal.
PNAMX PNAMY : Location of the pin name
relative to the terminal.
TFLAGS : Orientation & mirroring of terminal,
pin number, & pin name. Bits are
defined as follows:-
bit 0 - Terminal rotated 270 degrees
bit 1 - Terminal mirrored in X
bit 2 - Terminal mirrored in Y
bit 3 - Pin number rotated 270 degr.
bit 4 - Pin name rotated 270 degr.
bit 5 - Pin number right justified.
bit 6 - Pin name right justified.
PINDECAL: Name of the pin decal.
------------------------------------------
> P TSX TSY TNX TNY PFLAGS
TSX TSY: Position of the Pin Type/Swap text
relative to the terminal.
TNX TNY: Unused - Reserved for future use.
PFLAGS: Orientation, justification and
visibility of these "names".
Bits are defined as follows:-
Bit 0 - Pin Type/Swap rotated 270.
Bit 2 - Pin Type/Swap right just.
Bit 4 - Pin Type/Swap invisible.
