Abstract: For automatic device addressing, a processor configures each node device on a serial network for an order measurement. The processor further measures an order parameter for each of the node devices. The processor determines an order number of each of the node devices based on the order parameter for the node device.

Abstract: This application discloses a computing system implementing a schematic capture tool to place and connect parts in a schematic design of a printed circuit board assembly. The computing system implementing the schematic capture tool can select a type of communication interface to connect the parts in the schematic design and identify an interface definition that corresponds to the selected type of communication interface. The schematic capture tool can locate a mapping that describes connectivity between the parts and the interface definition, and automatically modify the schematic design to include an instance of the interface definition in the schematic design and connect the parts in the schematic design to the instance of the interface definition based on the mapping. The schematic capture tool also can utilize the interface definition to set constraints for or add terminations to the connection between the parts in the schematic design.
