In the dialog window mark All libraries (to be searched in), enter the component name and click Find. Click on Menu/Objects/Find component to find the amplifier TL072. If you are unable to find the component, use the Library search function. This is done by clicking on the library symbol and dragging it into the worksheet area. The view of a selected symbol pattern is displayed at the bottom of the box.ģ Let s use THT (through hole technology) components for our design and retrieve symbols of standard size patterns. There is a number of capacitors and resistors, varying with symbol appearance and pre-assigned patterns (PCB footprints).

Component placement Let s click on the library Discrete and see its contents in the left box. You can also try to find a component by name using Menu/Objects/Find Component dialog box. Get familiar with libraries content, explore them.
