#144585 - FYI Erik and Russ; Re: Scope
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Hi Erik and Russ,

In EDA software it is common to use text labels to define nodes (so you don't have to draw a rat's nest of lines everywhere), and on most of the more (or even moderately) sofisticated software packages those net labels (or node labels) can transfer across various sheet heirarchies (lateral, global, mother/daughter, etc.) such that pins on one sheet can be "connected" to pins on another sheet. This is, if I am not mistaken, sometimes referred to as the "scope" of the node/net.

I'm just guessing, but I think this might be the source of the confusion. The OP didn't just read and ignore something that he didn't understand. He read something and understood it to mean something you didn't intend.

FYI&WIW,

Joe
