Orcad Schematic Import Error
« on: January 26, 2014, 05:40:22 am »
Hi I want to use open source Hardware BeagleBoard. the schematic was drawn with Cadence Orcad, I want to import it in Altium but it doesn't work. the error is Design file "E:\...Beagle.DSN' not recognized. "
the link of the open source schematic is there:
https://github.com/CircuitCo/BeagleBoard-RevC5/blob/master/BeagleBoard_revC5_SCH.zip?raw=true

any help would be greatly appreciated,
all the best,
Siyavash

Siyavash-

I read the .DSN file in with no problem at all. It is only a schematic, no board.

Did you realize that the file you linked to is a .zip file? You will have to save the .DSN file that is in the .zip file to your drive and then do the import.

Hi, really thanks for your reply, I extracted zip file I can saw them in Cadence Orcad, I don't have any problem for converting allegro PCB with altium import wizard, is it possible to upload your imported file?
My altium version is 14, can it be the problem?

best regards,
Siyavash

I just gave it a go, importing works fine here with 14.1.5.

But, here is a copy of the converted files; https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/677635/BeagleBoard_revC5_SCH.zip
