TMDSSOLARUINVKIT: opening .sch file in OrCad

Michael McFarland

Part Number: TMDSSOLARUINVKIT

We have purchased the TMDSSOLARUINVKIT and we want to view and edit the schematic for this part. We downloaded the Design Files from the following URL: http://www.ti.com/tool/TIDM-SOLARUINV from there we unzipped the zip file and the subsequent zip files from within. Within the SCH_{TEX134}_C2000SolarMicroInverter_PPD_rev3.0 zip file there is a .sch file titled {TEX134}_C2000SolarMicroInverter_ppd is there any way that this .sch file can be opened and edited in OrCad.

The orginal design was done in PADS , you might want to contact ORCAD support if they support import of PADS files.. Unfortunately i am not an expert on EDA tools and don't have PADS or ORCAD installed on my machine anymore. So will be of limited help here.

hello

Would you or any TI Employee that is familiar with OrCad, PADS, and this Development Kit be available for a conference call with us. If so could there be contact information provided in which we could contact the individual. Could we obtain a quick response because we are a business and this issue is business related.

Michael,

I can understand the frustration, however i do not have PADS or ORCAD license myself. We only have altium license available to us, which is reflected by the fact all our new designs are in altium.

In fact if we were to update this design, we will not have a clear path forward for ourselves as well :(

I have replied to your PM, I will go ahead and close this thread.
