Using the Symbol Editor

A symbol is a set of information that defines the graphical representation and electrical connectivity of a component for inclusion in a schematic. Every component in a model library has at least one symbol, which is displayed when the component is placed on a schematic sheet. Component symbols are language-dependent. In other words, each language (SML, VHDL-AMS, C) can provide its own specific symbol. Symbol definitions are stored in library files with an extension of .aslb.
