In this case, click and hold is not necessary. To place a wire between the components, simply click on one of the component’s end using the ‘pencil’ pointer. Move the component to an appropriate location and then place it by clicking once more. The component will appear instead of the ‘pencil’ pointer. Now, to place a component in the main window (right to the pane), just select the component from the pane. Power Plane will be explained later in the document. The ‘Ground’ terminal must be connected if it is required to generate a Power Plane.
This contains the ‘Power’ and ‘Ground’ terminals required in the circuit. The icon indicated by arrow number 2 is ‘Terminals Mode’.
In our case, add the components as shown by figure to proceed further. Fill in all the components required to complete the desired schematic. To add the components click on the ‘P’ indicated by red square in the figure, and then type in the name to add the appropriate component. This can be done by selecting the ‘Component Mode’ icon indicated by the arrow number 1 in Figure-2. Below is the schematic, that this documents uses to explain the steps to make the PCB.Ģ.1 Making Schematic: To make the schematic, first add the suitable components in the ‘Component Mode’ pane. To make the schematic, first we must have its raw design. Layout is the final design which is needed in order to make the PCB of a circuit. But the same file can be further processed to transform it into a layout. This is the application where the simulations of the circuits can be tested. Proteus ISIS: Open the ‘ISIS Professional’ from PROTEUS.
If there are other files in the crack folder that are not available in the installation folder, just find a place for them in the installation folder according to the extensions they are assigned.Ģ. Replace the files of the installation folder with the files in crack folder. There will be files that will be present in both the installation folder and the crack folder. Also, open the crack folder or if there are any other folders in this folder. Now, open the folder where PROTEUS has been installed. After completing the installation, open the file starting from ‘LXK’ and follow the procedure required by this file. During installation it will ask for a key, locate the file with ‘lxk’ extension. Run the ‘setup’ file to start the installation.
The ‘crack’ folder part might skip if there isn’t any ‘crack’ folder. In the setup folder, there will be the ‘setup’ file, a file with ‘lxk’ extension, another file starting from ‘LXK’ and a ‘crack’ folder in which there will be certain files that will be useful after installation.
If there aren’t any instructions, then follow whatever is given in below paragraph to complete installation. Then see the ‘readme.txt’ file that came with the PROTEUS setup and follow the instructions.
Make sure to install the software from ‘administrator’ login. If there are any, uninstall them and restart the PC. Installing Proteus: Before installing the PROTEUS, make sure there aren’t any previous versions on PC. Other versions of PROTEUS may have similar steps but you might need to be cautious anyway.ġ. This document only emphasizes on PCB designing in PROTEUS 7.10 sp0. This also complexes the procedure through which PCBs are made.
But on the industrial scale or on a professional level, it is preferred to have a double sided PCB. On a lower level of project, PCBs are usually designed on a board whose one side is lined with copper. The naming convention will be clear once steps for the design are understood. DESIGNING A PCB USING PROTEUS PCB stands for Printed Circuit Board.
