Assign multiple pads to one pin ( pin mapping ) in Database Library

Ля, , 07-23-2024, 05:41 PM
How can do pin mapping in database library? I found a way of doing that in schematic library and A360 but haven't seen any mentioning of doing that in a DBLib. Maybe some parameter should be created in the database with secret name like "Pin Mapping", have anybody dealt with that?

Ok, I have tinkered a bit and found that in altium 24 at least you just can set a designator in schematic library like 1,2,3 and that pin would be connected to 1 and 2 and 3 pads. Not what I was asking for but I will use this way. Initially the problem was to find the most elegant way of creating components like 8-pin mosfets, do i create different schematic symbols for each different footprint with designators 1 through 8 or a single schematic symbol with different footprints with designators GDS e.g.

"...*you just can set a designator in schematic library like 1,2,3 and that pin would be connected to 1 and 2 and 3 pin.*" -- Not to my knowledge (but that is from about < AD22)
In the normal schematic library there is the pin mapper that can (must) be used.
I have no idea how it is in a database library.
