Complete Tutorial (Includes Schematic & Layout): Connectivity of Schematic Objects Connectivity is the electrical links between objects in the schematic design area. Objects with electrical properties and their own functionalities are: · Schematic symbols · Wires · Junctions · Net labels Schematic symbol parts: A schematic symbol is a representation of an electronic component. These objects usually have multiple connection points or terminals that describe a pin location on the actual component. Each terminal has a pin number corresponding to the pin of the physical component and may have a label to describe this pin. A connection can be made to a terminal by drawing a wire to the terminal end or anywhere along its length. If a connection is made along its length a junction will be placed at the intersection. Note: There are also special schematic symbols that will let you easily connect a network to ground. Note: Hidden terminals are another way to show connectivity through a schematic symbol. This method connects hidden terminals to special net identifiers VCC, +v, -v, and gnd automatically through the design of the symbol part.
