Encyclopedia > Schematic capture

Schematic capture or schematic entry is a step in the design cycle of electronic design automation at which the electronic diagram, or schematic of the designed electronic circuit is created by a designer. This is done interactively with the help of a schematic capture tool also known as schematic editor. Electronic design automation (EDA) is the category of tools for designing and producing electronic systems ranging from printed circuit boards (PCBs) to integrated circuits. ... A schematic of the Washington Metro. ... An electrical network or electrical circuit is an interconnection of analog electrical elements such as resistors, inductors, capacitors, diodes, switches and transistors. ... There are several conceptual views of interactivity, the most general being the contingency view. ... Schematic editor is a tool for schematic capture of electronic circuits. ...


In a way, schematic entry is the very first step of actual design of an electronic circuit. Therefore schematic entry is said to be a front-end operation in the design flow. In their most general meanings, the terms front end and back end refer to the initial and the end stages of a process flow. ...

Schematic - definition of Schematic in Encyclopedia (215 words)
The schematic is not drawn to scale; distances between stations are normalized and lines are drawn at 45 and 90-degree angles.
A schematic is a diagram, drawing, or sketch that details the elements of a system, such as the elements of an electrical or electronic circuit or the elements of a logic diagram for a computer or communications system.
Schematics for electronic circuits are prepared by designers using EDA (Electronic Design Automation) tools called schematic capture tools or schematic entry tools.
