data is available within the design database. This lets you work on the snapshot of a
reference library.
The functionality also makes the Allegro System Capture database a true single file
database, which contains all the design data including the library data for the parts use d
in the design.
There are no interactive steps to this lab – it is informational only. Continue to Lab 3.
Lab 3: Part Management
As component data is cached in the System Capture single-file database, component
information is periodically compared to the reference library, and designers get notified
of any mismatches. A given part can have one of these statuses:
• In Sync – These parts are the same in the design cache as well as the reference
library.
• Auto Sync – These parts are different in the cache and the reference library but
can be automatically synchronized by the tool.
• Manual Sync – These parts are different in the cache and the reference library
and require manual resolution before they can be synchronized.
1. In Allegro System Capture, choose the Tools – Part Manager menu command.
All parts are in-sync.
