Problem Title:
OrCAD Capture: Design rule check gives "no matching pin" error for
OFD16component



Problem Description:
Keywords: Orcad, Capture, ofd16, pins, matching
Priority: Urgency

Problem Description:
If you are using an OFD16 in an Orcad Capture design, you may get the following
warning from the design rule checker:

 [DRC0012] Pin has no matching port in schematic below U...
 and
 [DRC0013]: Port has no matching pin in part instance above...

 This warning message may be due to a problem with the library
symbol.  Descend into the OFD16 component and check to see if
the output and input bus names have an index [15.0] instead of
[15..0] as they should be.  (This was a problem in the original
Capture libraries.)
Orcad has been notified of this error.


Solution 1:

Call Orcad technical suppport for an updated library or descend into the OFD16 a
nd change the bus index to [15..0].
