The debate over US/european/tibetan schematic symbols is silly. We
just make up anything that we like. Why follow rules when you can make
rules?

Same here... very human-readable schematics, but netlists are what the
layout guys want.


I became very careful about that. Basically my layouter re-draws the
schematic most of the time. That takes a few extra hours but it's well
invested time.

Sometimes my layout guy recreates a schematic in his tool format...
particularly if he's an employee of the foundry who want their own
documentation.

However I insist of LVS checking against MY netlist ;-)


The pinout on even the most mundane parts such as a BSS123 is not
standard. At first the layouter didn't think so until it did go wrong.
Data*** said 3-1-2, his CAD said 1-3-2. Bzzzzt. What blew me away was
that they even changed it when Siemens became Infineon. IOW there is no
standard.

I don't have that problem... at least not very often... it's rare that
I do a discrete project as I am at the moment.
