Understandability
Naming Values and Units
- For example, values would change as follows:
resistor: 1 MOhm -> 1M, 4.7 kOhm -> 4k7, 49.9 Ohm -> 49R9, 220 Ohm -> 220R, 20 mOhm -> 0R02 capacitor: 10 uF -> 10u, 3.3 uF -> 3u3, 100 nF -> 100n, 4.7 nF -> 4n7.
Power Symbols
Used by POWERED flag
Directions of Global/Local Labels
Right use case: global lable
Wrong use case: global lable
Orientation of Value and Reference
Style of Junctions
Use the right-side variant of 3a of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Schematic_junctions.svg
