	Please refer to the prerequisite tutorials to learn how to perform Annotation and ERC.
eSim Schematic Editor window: Press Ctrl and S key together.	Let us now save the schematic. Press Ctrl and S keys together to save this schematic. We will now learn how to map the components with their footprints. Fexplain in brief what a footprint isootprint is the layout of a component which is placed on the Printed Circuit Board.
eSim Schematic Editor window: Click Run Cvpcb to associate components and footprints button.	Click on the Run CvPcb to associate components and footprints button at the top of the eSim Schematic Editor. This opens Cvpcb window. If you’re using Cvpcb for the first time, you will get a confirmation box. Here, click on the OK button. If you get another dialog box titled Confirmation, click on No button.
Cvpcb window: Hover the cursor over the leftmost panel	The Cvpcb window is divided into three panels. The left panel shows the Libraries of the footprints.
Cvpcb window: Demonstrate Hover the cursor over the middle panel Hover the cursor over the first column of the middle panel Hover the cursor over the second column of the middle panel Hover the cursor over the third column of the middle panel	only a column can be divided into sub-columns. sub-columns don't appear without having columns...this is my opinion...period.The middle panel is divided into 3 columns. @sandhya ma'am, please tell me if this looks correct to you.The first column in the middlewhy this is "left" panel again? Now "middle" panel is being explained, i guess!!the middle panel is divided in 3 sub-columns, and that is being explained hereyes, it could be written as 1st column in middle panel..can I write it as first sub column in middle panel instead?have made the correctionyou can't say it as sub- column, because you have mentioned it earlier as "panel" divided into 3 columns. columns are not divided further into sub-columns. So, it is a column, and not a sub-column. panel shows the serial number. The second column in the middle panel shows the reference ID of the components used in the schematic. The third column in the middle panel shows the values of the corresponding components, if any.
Cvpcb window: Hover the cursor over right most panel	The right panel gives a list of footprints available in the libraries.
Cvpcb window: Demonstrate Hover the cursor to show Filter options Hover the cursor over Filter footprint list by keywords. >> Hover the cursor over Filter footprint list by pin count. >> Hover the cursor over Filter footprint list by Library.	Demonstrate sorting of footprints from database available to usThe top menu of Cvpcb window has 3 options to filter the footprints. This will filter the footprints by keywords. This will filter the footprints by pin count. This will filter the footprints by the library.
	Now we will map the components with their appropriate footprints.
Cvpcb window: Click on Filter footprints list by library	Click on the option Filter footprints list by library from the top menu. If any other filters other than Filter footprints list by library are selected, please uncheck them.
