Packages & Landpatterns

Package name: jsl/landpatterns/packages

Interface definitions for Landpatterns

This package contains the definition of some abstract types for defining the landpatterns of various components.

The goal of these definitions is to provide a consistent interface across all landpattern definitions. This promotes re-use and correctness.

All of the entities in this package use millimeters as their standard unit.

TODO - Diagram here discussing the concept for landpatterns & component packages. We should include examples of various packages and use the right nomenclature to describe things.

public defmulti build-all (pkg:Package, vp:VirtualLP) -> False

  • pkg: Package - IC Package for which we are creating silkscreen artwork
  • vp: VirtualLP - Virtual Landpattern Container to which content will be written
