Bug in OrCAD Crapture

by Jim Thompson <To-Email-Use-The-Envelope-Icon@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jul 3, 2008 at 07:04 PM

In OrCAD Crapture, wiring as below...



----.---------------> GND
  __|__
   ---
    -

Wiring from a ground symbol to a ****t name, the "zero" node effect is
lost, giving "floating node" errors and all kinds of nonsensical
grief.

Cured by inserting a zero-volt voltage source:

----.---------(=)-----> GND
  __|__
   ---
    -

I have a small "(=)" symbol which netlists as a zero-volt voltage
source that I use to make node-name-to-node-name connections without
losing the uniqueness of each name.
