ALTIUM,20-BUS with DIFFERENTIAL LINE
« on: September 04, 2020, 11:06:05 am »
Hi everyone. I have a big problem with an ALTIUM project.
I have a hierarchical block with differential ports. It is repeated 12 times.
These differential lines must go on connector.
The bus joins all the lines of the block with the name SiPM_K or A [1..12]. For the differential lines on the connector use _P or _N.
The compiler gives me an error, looks for the twisted pair on the name of the bus net and fails to match the two lines of the twisted pair.
I attach the schematics section and error line
Can anyone tell me how I can solve the problem?
Thanks for help.

Altium must have _N and _P you will need to rename the _K _A to N and P.

Hi, thanks for  your answer, I know.
I tested bus with _P and _N, I had the same problem.
In bus line SiPM_P or N [1..12] the name of singol line is SiPM_P1, SiPM_P2, ... and SiPM_P12 / SiPM_N1, SiPM_N2, ... and SiPM_N12. It is not correct for ALTIUM's differential line policy...

At the very moment you leave the _P and _N convention for differential pairs at any place it is not going to work so the problem lies for sure on your implementation of the nets, Bus or your hierarchical structure.
Looking at it your current schematics I have a very hard time to follow what you are trying to do.

Edit: Look into how to correctly set up Harnesses in hierarchical Design, I think that can solve your Problem.

As easy as paint by number.
