Some thoughts to add to others' good thoughts: Not only Transistors but DIODES! need AK (vs. CBE) designated. And I haven't been seeing any kind of power ratings on resistors in there (Pretty dang important for lots of parts, folks!) Though for more flexibility, cautions like "Heatsink the U7 regulator!" might need to be in text after the description. Some sort of named call could be used, i.e. D, 1, 1N4001, PIV=25, I=1mA, AK=5,3 would mean "I used a 1N4001 as D1, you need 25+PIV but only 1mA max current, put cathode to node 3 and anode to node 5." A 1N4148 might work instead here, or a 1N914, but this way you'd know what had been used! R, 12, 1k2, 10W, At=14,5 //must be a non-inductive resistor! Q, 3, 2N2222A, NPN, Beta=20+, V=50, I=20mA, CBE=4,5,6 i.e. Beta must be 20 or more. If some company had a scheme & would publish it, we could USE a subset of that spec (It'd be sorta an inducement to some to buy that product - if you could drop a schematic into that circuit editor, move parts around & then route to get rid of the rubber bandings & you're done... Dream on, huh?) I don't really need others' exact wire routings, trace dimensions, via and pad locations, etc. etc. for a quick sketched idea of how to do an oscillator or a hardware switch debouncer or a 120VAC to 5VDC power supply, safely and functionally - I can hand-sketch the schematic in MY style, well enough, the whole idea here is to really minimize listserve-wide character count. Something like a mutated wirelist from the right package should be about right. And we might want to keep it sort of "Meta", come to think of it, as if all I need is two inverters and a tri-state buffer in there, I don't really need the rest of those IC's in there - if we can at least put MOST parts in pretty specifically, though, it'd be easier on all of us. So some parts might need to be "non-compliant" with the source parkage, or take extra editing, whatever Mark
