Overview

The netlist tool exports a partlist.csv and netlist.csv file using the same headers as the web browser report. Configuration information for this can be found in the NetBom Report Settings documentation.

partlist.csv

The headers option in the NetBom report settings (default: PART_NUMBER,QTY,REF_DES,DESCRIPTION,PART_VOLT) can be changed to add or remove any part property (like JEDEC_TYPE, PATH, etc) to the report. The report table column order is also controlled by this variable.

The NL_ITEM_CELLS_PER_ROW CSET (default:25) controls how many reference designators are placed in a row. If more than the desired quantity exist, they will be split across multiple lines to make the report more readable.

Properties are read from the pstxprt.dat file and from any cadence .pst library file referenced in the design (to allow the inclusion of properties that exist in the .pst file but might not be included in the netlist).

An example partlist.csv file opened in Excel is shown below.

netlist.csv

The headers option in the NetBom report settings (default: NUM_NODES,NET_NAME,NET_VOLT,NODE_LIST) can be changed to add or remove any net property to the report. The report table column order is also controlled by this variable.

Properties are read from the pstxnet.dat file and from any cadence .pst library file referenced in the design (to allow the inclusion of properties that exist in the .pst file but might not be included in the netlist).
