Overview

What is a PRJPCBSTRUCTURE file? A PRJPCBSTRUCTURE file is a project data file created by Altium Designer, a CAD application used to design printed circuit boards (PCBs). When a Designer user creates a new project ( .PRJPCB file), Designer creates an accompanying PRJPCBSTRUCTURE file. This file contains information about the project's hierarchy.

More Information A project's PRJPCBSTRUCTURE file contains references to each of that project's schematic documents ( .SCHDOC files). When a user opens a project document, Designer automatically updates (or if necessary, recreates) that project's PRJPCBSTRUCTURE file. NOTE: When importing a Designer project into another CAD application, such as Cadence OrCAD, you often must possess both the project's PRJPCB and PRJPCBSTRUCTURE file.
