Hi all,
I'd like some help regarding Orcad 16.6 and complex hierarcical designs.
I have been tasked to convert a complex design with reuse modules from DE-HDL to Orcad 16.6. The reuse module has a 2 heterogeneous parts in it. I've packaged the module and made it into a library part. Because the module has a lot input output ports, i have also made it heterogeneous (18 sections 281 ports!). I've put four modules in my top level design. When i try to annotate, from tools->annotate->packaging tab, it sees each section of the module as a different part and puts 72 modules instead of 4. Also it does not put different reference designators inside each module. It produces a parts list with 36000 parts instead of ~2000 that should be and also i have multiple reference designators with the same name. I've seen this reply but when i try to do this, Orcad stops responding. Any ideas?
