Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMDSEVM572X, TMDSIDK572
Team,
It seems that EVM/IDK (TMDSIDK572, TMDSEVM572X) source files are in Allegro 16.x format.
Could the .alg files be provided additionally to the .DSN/.BRD?
Thanks in advance,
A.

Hi Robert,
Within Allegro there is an option to save in *.alg format. It is an ASCII format that makes it easier to import in other CAD like Altium.
Is it possible to provide such format for our EVMs?
Thanks in advance,
A.
Altium (and other vendors) normally provide users with a 'how to worksheet' on what you need for importing Allegro PCB files. Most use the 'extracta' command to generate files. I recommend you speak with you CAD vendor (or search on web) to determine the 'extracta' commands and parameters needed to be run for importing on the specific CAD tool. Once give the commands - I can certainly run the script and provide the ASCII output files.
My Allegro has no save-as option for 'alg'. format.
Hi Robert,
It seems that Altium helped the customer to convert our files from Allegro.
You can close this post.
Thanks again!
A.
