EMA Part Link is a Cadence OrCAD Capture app that connects parts on the schematic to the Digi-Key database of immediately available components. Allows downloads of part information directly into the part on the schematic. Common information needed, like manufacturer, manufacturer part number, distributor, and distributor part number, are all mapped by default. Automatically selects fields for download based on the part’s properties, and downloads additional information into part properties that are created on the fly. This works with any field Digi-Key supplies for the part, like tolerance, packaging, operating temperature, and pricing.
Applies same downloaded part information to all identical parts.
