7. Make use of footprint data to the board design
Footprint data [Capacitor_TY**.ftp] and [FerriteBeads_TY**.ftp] can be copied to thefootprint library that you are currently using by “Copy CDB library”. (*)* Please read the notes on the next page.

- 16 -

Notes on making use of footprint data
Items depending on the layer structure (padstack etc.) of this library are based on thesample data “BDsample” provided by Board Designer.
This board data exist in <the folder where Board Designer is installed>¥data¥Bdsample.
In case that your layer structure is different from that of “BDsample”, you need to edit thedata depending on the layer structure. Please change the layer name to the one you areusing at the footprint registration menu of Board Designer as follows.

8. Make use of symbol data to the circuit diagram
You can use symbol data (Capacitor.smb, FerriteBeads.smb) on Design Gateway/SystemDesigner by inserting them to the symbol library that you are using. If you are operating
LCDB, you can also search components by concerning components data with symbols.

Example of components search in LCDB operation
