I certainly don=92t do it that way. It starts as a sketch of topology. =

need, how much power dissipation, etc.

Ordering information is separate databases, as the schematic just has =
specs. I don=92t care if you get the part from Allied or DigiKey, nor do =
I care if the manufacturer is Kyocera or AVX, as long as it meets spec. =
Aerospace projects get additional specs layered on beyond the =
schematic's, and flight part procurement is a different thing from =
prototype. That=92s all beyond the schematics, and largely beyond =
layout. We try to make boards that can accept either prototype or flight =
parts, although that=92s not always practical.

attributes added. This method would be especially useful then ordering =
information need to be changed or added.
