The Reusable Part
The created part, LPF, can be used in any design to refer the schematic bot2.dsn.
The part has a pin corresponding to every port in the design. Similarly, the part you
created for the design bot2.dsn has two pins, OUT_FILTER and GND, corresponding to
the ports in the design.
You can edit the part graphics and save the part. Few important properties for reuse
flow in the part are as follows.
Hint: Open the user property dialogue from Options -- Part properties to view the
properties.
Implementation Path: It must point to the design from which the part has been
created. For example, LPF must point to bot2.dsn. This path must be correct so
that the tool can find the schematic from the part. When a part is placed in a
design, you will be able to descend into the design from the part using the
Descend Hierarchy command of the right-click menu option. If descend does not
work, check this path.
