Normally in circuit designs,we will use a power bar to indicate power source and it seems that the vcc_bar is the global one.
We have a design with lot of hierarchical schematics.As most of the the
power nets used were 'vcc_bar',in the main schematic i came up with mess
that the power net in one hierarchical schematic is shorted to the
power net in another hierarchical design.
For example,consider in a main schematic i have called two hierarchical blocks say block 1 and block2.
In block 1 hierarchical design,i have a 3.3V regulator and i have named
the output of 3.3V regulator as "P3V3" and in block2 which uses
different 3.3V regulator and the output i named as same P3V3.
I know i shouldn't named with same global net names.
But we are deigning many reuse modules like the hierarchical designs
and in each design they maintain their individual power names but i
think it shouldn't mess up with the main design as well as other
hierarchical designs.
My question is that whether 'vcc_bar' power can be declared as
local and can be used within the schematic.We don't want off page
connectors to connect the powers within the schematic.
If any other option to overcome this issue,please suggest us.
