Importing BOM From Excel Files
A Bill Of Materials (BOM) can be added to a board by importing from the netlist, from a suitable schematic file, or from a separate BOM file. […]
Custom BOM fields
Previously, when importing BOM information users were limited to making assignments from a selection of pre-defined BOM fields. With XJDeveloper 3.7 users can now define custom BOM fields. […]
More options for importing BOM information
The Bill of Materials, or BOM provides valuable information about the components in a netlist. This information is often key for project setups and, when available, is used by XJDeveloper to make project setup suggestions. This information is often taken from a separate BOM file or straight from a board’s netlist. With XJDeveloper 3.7 the volume of BOM data extracted for many of the netlist formats has increased. […]
New options for BOM importing
From XJDeveloper 3.6 a new BOM data type is available in the BOM Import dialog, the “Unfitted” device field. Any devices with an entry in a column assigned to this are suggested under the “Suggested Unfitted Devices” category on the Categorise Devices screen. […]
Categorisation Suggestion Improvements
From XJTAG 3.6 onwards the suggested device categories on the Categorise Devices Screen have been renamed and expanded, with separate categories for different types of resistor packs. In addition, the “Suggested Resistors – Other” category now displays the reason for any resistor’s inclusion using a separate “Reason” column, to make the inclusion of a device into this category easier to understand.
