I am not able to fund a proper tutorial or blog where properly explains how to create hierarchical designs in fusion pcb. I am trying to create a board which is becoming hard to have it in a single sheet. it would be easier to manage if all of it is a single sheet with sub sheets/modules. Please let me know how to do it.

 

Thanks!

Hello @darshan_k6MEQS ,

 

I hope you're doing well. So you can split the design into multiple sheets without making it hierarchical. In Fusion you can add sheets by clicking the sheets link at the bottom of the editor. See the image below

This will allow you to spread circuitry across various sheets. Signals will connect across sheets as long as they have the same name.

 

If you really want to use hierarchy then you would use the module command. Make sure that you need hierarchy since it brings complications to the schematic design so you want to make sure that you need the black box methodology and reuse that hierarchy affords.

 

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

 

Best Regards,
