pin list has been added for each pin.
For this example we want to name the pins “Source”, “Gate”, and “Drain”. In
addition we want to give them the following pin number “S”, “G”, and “D”.
NOTE: Depending on the order in which you placed the pin symbols, they may not be
in the list in the same order as this example. You can check the association of
names to pins by clicking on an item in the list and observing which pin on the
drawing is highlighted.
To change the name of a pin:
Double-click on the item in the list.
Enter the name, in this case “Source” for example.
Press the Enter key to terminate editing.
While this first pin is still highlighted in the list, we can enter its pin number by
typing it in the Pin Number box. Enter “S” for this example. When you click
anywhere else, you will see the pin number appear in the graphics.
Depending on your application, the Pin Type setting may or may not be signifi-
cant. See “Setting the Pin Type” on page 165 for more information. In this case,
we will leave it as the default “input” type.
