Hi Ales,
the question is, where to put those symbols?
1) To the analog library?
They have different attributes then the other symbols in the analog library.
It is not obvious for the fist time user, that the attributes are different.
They see only the graphic and think they are exchangeable which may lead into
confusion.
2) To the spice library?
The first time user may ask, why are transistors in analog as well as in the
spice library? ==> Because they are made only for simulation and not for PCB
design.
At the moment the attributes only cover ASIC simulation, not PCB simulation.
Additional work (and a lot of discussion) would be necessary to add the
additional attributes.
3) Create a new library "ASIC"
At the moment, we have already x libraries. Do we need x+1 libraries?
It seems to me like a decision between worse and bad. Never the less I would
prefer number 3.
What's your opinion?
Peter
