I am currently trying to get my first project out using the geda toolkit and though there is a rather steep learning curve, I am making really nice progress. Thanks to all who have contributed to make this product a reality. I am, however, having some issues with one custom schematic component being recognized as such by several gnetlist backends (so far, tested with backends bom2 and geda). The component is an IC whose symbol I made myself. All the pins are properly labelled (pinnumber, pinseq all defined and unique) My component has the following promoted attributes as seen on the schematic sheet C 60800 44300 1 0 0 TPA3111D1.sym { T 60800 44300 5 10 1 1 0 0 1 device=TPA3111D1 T 61195 49250 5 10 1 1 0 0 1 refdes=U4 T 61695 49250 5 10 1 1 0 0 1 value=TPA3111D1 T 60800 44300 5 10 0 1 0 0 1 vendor=Digikey T 60800 44300 5 10 0 1 0 0 1 vendor-number=296-25121-1-ND T 60800 44300 5 10 0 1 0 0 1 manufacturer=Texas Instruments T 60800 44300 5 10 0 1 0 0 1 manufacturer-number=TPA3111D1PWPR T 60800 49500 5 10 1 1 0 0 1 description=10W Class D Mono Amplifier T 60800 44300 5 10 0 1 0 0 1 footprint=TPA3111D1 T 60800 44300 5 10 0 1 0 0 1 symversion=1.1 } Testing with gnetlist -g geda shows that the respective pins of the symbol are connected and properly recognised when dealing with any connected components, but my problem component (here, refdes U4) does not show up in the components section of the output netlist or on the verbose log ********************* Some output pastes ********************* - Netlist created by gnetlist -g geda http://pastebin.com/05Kh3uKx - Verbose log output from previous netlist http://pastebin.com/XdfTxbBh In the above pastes, there is no U4 being reported except on individual net connections. Hopefully, someone can help me in debugging this issue. What could be missing from the component? I will continue to tinker and see if there is any additional useful information I can add to this. Thanks to all in advance. -- Kind Regards, Tim van Boxtel Director of Technology Studiofeed 260 Spadina Ave. Unit 305 Toronto, ON M5T 2E4 (647) 235-3981
