OrCAD to Allegro Interace

[mentorkk]

How is the interface between Orcad and Allegro ?
Are the forward and backward annotation easy ?

[Ray from NJ]

Only foreward annotation is available, Orcad---->Allegro.

[Skip Yutkus]

We have been told here, (haven't tested it), that if permissions and other configuration issues are set properly, both are possible, this will become an issue soon, I'll keep you posted.

If you're current (say v15 and beyond) Capture to Allegro is completely bidirectional. Capture now creates the 3 .dat files the same way Concept does. When Cadence bought Orcrap a couple years ago the interface was not complete, but Cadence has finally shored it up, and will continue to further integrate Capture to Allegro (properties, look&feel, cross-probing, etc.)

Good day.
