9.1 Bill of Materials
A Bill of Materials (BOM) lists the components used in your design and provides a summary
of the components needed to manufacture the circuit board. You can also select which fields
to view and print on your BOM.
The
Bill of Materials report includes each component’s:
• Quantity
• Description, including its type (for example, resistor) and value (for example, 5.1 kohm)
• RefDes
• Package or footprint.
The
Bill of Materials can also show all user fields and their values. For more on defining and
completing user fields, see “8.8 Editing User Fields” on page 8-49.
Note Because a BOM is primarily intended to assist in procurement and manufacturing, it
includes only “real” parts. Therefore, it excludes parts that are not real or able to be
purchased, such as sources or virtual components. If desired, you may also view a list
of the virtual components in a circuit.
