RE: gEDA: [blarson@blars.org: Bug#163584: geda-gschem: need generic transistors, component scale, lable orientation]



Hi Xtian and all,

By "original spec" in line 2 of your mail, do you mean 1.5 times bigger as
the IEEE spec, or 1.5 times bigger as the current symbols in gschem ?

With regard to 200 mills --> 300 mils the following: several connectors (or
headers) in gschem have a different pin spacing as the IC symbols created
with gmk_sym.

So you have to zig-zag up and down to connect a 8 bit databus to a 20 pins
header for instance.

The use of busses is still not advised by the various docs on this subject.

What does IEEE say about this issue ?

With kind regards,

Bert Timmerman.
