Part Number: TMS570LC4357
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DP83630

Tool/software: WEBENCHRegistered Design Tools

When using Ultra Librarian to export the TMS570LC4357_ZWT_337.bxl file to Altium Designer, I get the error below for the ZWT file.  I believe I am following the instructions correctly as I do not get an error when exporting the TMS570LC4357_ZWT_337 .bxl file. then,the pcb.library and the schemaic library are blank.Any suggestions are appreciated. 


Pad style "EX13p78Y13p78D0T" is a complex style and will be skipped.
Footprint "ZWT337" requires pad style "EX13p78Y13p78D0T" and will be skipped.
Component "TMS570LC4357_ZWT" requires footprint "ZWT337" and will be skipped.

    I did as above,but I chose the altium,then 3th steps,files as follows

    **********************************************************
    ************* Important Instructions Follow ************
    **********************************************************

    All files exported to: C:\UltraLibrarian\Library\Exported\Altium\2018-05-18_07-03-29\2018-05-18_07-03-29


    To import your new library part into Altium follow these steps:

    1. After running the Ultra Librarian export for the first time,
    you will need to copy the following files into an area where
    they can be accessed for all future translations. They are script
    files that Altium will need to be able to find.
    a. UL_Form.dfm
    b. UL_Form.pas
    c. UL_Import.pas
    d. UL_Import.prjScr

    2. The above script file will need to be run from within Altium.
    This can be done by going to File, Open and selecting the
    UL_Import.PrjScr file stored above.

    3. Select the UL_Form.pas file form the new project that has loaded,
    and then select runfrom the drop down menu. You will need to select
    the form again. Run the form.

    3. When the script is run, it will ask you for the file name of the
    Ultra Librarian file to run. You should select the latest file
    produced with a date code (for instance 2010-02-17_23-12-34.txt).

    4. The script will open a new Integraged Library project and import
    the Ultra Librarian data into it. When complete a message box
    will pop up saying that import is done.

    thanks and regards.
  • Hello,

    I don't have Altium installed, so I could not do test. Did you try other Hercules devices, for example TMS570LS3137ZWT?
