Layout Group¶
layout-group
is used to control the placer in JITX, which arranges our components automatically on our board. The placer will try to place components in a layout group close to each other (with a controllable weighting), and optionally will arrange the layout groups off to the side of the board to make manual placement easier.
Syntax¶
pcb-module reg
layout-group(self) = reg
pcb-module my-module
layout-group(my-inst) = power
layout-group(my-other-inst) = test
layout-group([test-points measure]) = test
layout-group(load) = layout-group(my-inst)
Description¶
pcb-module reg :
layout-group(self) = reg
reg
. Multiple instances of reg
will be grouped individually.
layout-group(my-inst) = power
Set the layout-group
of my-inst
to be power.
layout-group(my-other-inst) = test
Set the layout-group
of my-other-inst
to be test.
layout-group([test-points measure]) = test
Set the layout-group
of test-points
and measure
to also be test.
layout-group(load) = layout-group(my-inst)
Set the layout-group
of load
to be the same as the layout-group
of my-inst
.
