Picking a CHIPRES1K Resistor from the Pick Devices form

You can customize the information displayed in the Library Browser’s results list by

right clicking the mouse on the results list. The context menu provides you with

options to display Categories, Sub-Categories, Manufacturer and Library alongside

each result.

It may be that we simply want to browse for a specific type of part and/or one available from a

specific manufacturer. To take an example, clear out the contents of the keyword field and then

select the Capacitors Category. In our design we are looking for some Nickel Barrier caps from

AVX so we can further filter the results set by selecting Nickel Barrier from the sub-category

field and AVX from the Manufacturer field. There are still a large number of caps available so

we might type in ‘22p’, ‘1N’, etc. in the keywords field to isolate and select the particular

components we require (AVX0805NP022P, AVX0805X7R1N and so on).

Whilst this exercise is a little contrived given that we are starting from a preset list of parts, the

techniques described are flexible enough to allow you to locate any library part quickly. Work

through the full parts list for the design (as provided above) now using one or more of these
