RE: Issue: Updating footprints and padstacks in Allegro 17.2

Hi, I will give you a quick crash course on how to embedded a component. 1. Open the Cross Section Editor and change the Embedded Status to "Body Up" for the layer you want the component placed 2. Change the Embedded Status on the all layers above the Body Up layer to "Protruding allowed" 3. You can adjust the clearance information under the Embedded Layers Setup tab, along the bottom, as required 4. In Allegro, add the property "EMBEDDED_PLACEMENT" with a value of "OPTIONAL" using Edit > Property to the component to be placed internally 5. Place > Manually > [Device of interest] or select the component already placed, RMB > Place on Layer > [Embedded layer] 6. That's it. For more information check out the Best Practices doc: https://support1.cadence.com/tech-pubs/Docs/embbp/embbp17.2-2016/embbp.pdf NOTE: The document still shows the Embedded Component Setup in a separate form, it was incorporated into the Cross Section Editor in 17.2 Hope this helps, Mike Catrambone
