The Input Netlists NetList File(s) contain verbose information about the design, including Nets, Net connections, Net Properties, Pins and Pin Properties and Parts and Part Properties. The Files are built for machine processing and not friendly for user viewing.
When the user selects the Convert NetList operation, NetBom extracts the Input data into an internal database of the parts, nets and connections and the properties attached to each item. From this database, it outputs an HTML Netlist, a CSV file for easy post-processing and a Netlist in CadStar RINF format. It also builds an HTML partlist (BOM), and a CSV version for easy import into MRP tools like Arena and AGILE.
