Who Should Apply Please apply only if you have direct experience in electrical symbol creation, library development, or related automation systems. This project requires more than general coding ability. Preference will be given to freelancers who can demonstrate a clear understanding of the requirement and prior implementation experience in this area. Project Overview I am looking for an experienced freelancer to develop an AI-assisted electrical schematic symbol automation tool with a strong focus on accuracy, structured symbol generation, editing flexibility, and multi-EDA export support. Core Concept The main concept of this project is as follows: A user will open a component datasheet from a website, PDF, browser, or any other source. The user should be able to capture the pin diagram or pinout section using a dedicated global hotkey. Once the screenshot is taken, the tool should automatically begin generating the corresponding IC schematic symbol. This workflow should be fast, practical, and convenient, without requiring repeated manual import steps. Global Hotkey Capture Requirement This is one of the main requirements of the project: The screenshot capture must work through a dedicated global system-wide hotkey. The hotkey should work from anywhere on the PC. Once triggered, it should allow the user to capture the required datasheet pinout area. After capture, the tool should automatically start the symbol creation process. Automatic Symbol Generation Logic The tool should not generate symbols randomly. It must follow strict symbol creation rules and structured placement logic. Pin Placement Rules Initially, the generated IC symbol should support pin placement on the left and right sides only. Pin arrangement must be clean, readable, and grouped properly by function. Pins must not be placed in a random or unorganized manner. Functional Grouping Expectations For example: Power pins such as VCC, VDD, AVCC, VBAT, and similar pins should be placed in the top-left area. Ground pins such as GND, AGND, DGND, PGND, and similar pins should be placed in the bottom-right area. Communication or grouped signals such as SPI, I2C, UART, GPIO, input, output, and control pins should remain grouped together in a logical and continuous arrangement. Related signal families must stay together and should not be split randomly. Symbol Standard Compliance Active-low pins must be identified properly and shown using the correct notation, such as overbar or inversion indication. The full symbol creation flow should follow professional schematic symbol creation practices. Mandatory Accuracy Requirement This is a critical requirement. The generated symbol must maintain 100 percent accuracy. Pin number and pin name must match the datasheet exactly. Any mismatch in pin number, pin name, or grouping is unacceptable. If the generated symbol contains mismatched data, it will not be accepted. Automatic Electrical Type Assignment The tool must also automatically detect and assign the correct pin electrical types. Examples include: Input Output Bidirectional Passive Power Input Power Output Open Collector Open Emitter Tri-state Clock Active Low No Connect Other equivalent types supported by the destination EDA tools Manual Editing Option If required, the user must be able to click on a pin, open its properties, and edit the electrical type manually. Proper Visual Pin Identification The generated symbol should also reflect correct visual identification wherever applicable. Examples: Input pin representation should follow the target symbol standard. Output pin representation should match the expected notation. Clock pins should show the proper clock indicator. Bidirectional pins should use the correct bidirectional representation. Active-low pins should show the inversion or overbar indication. Similar standard symbol-level markings should be supported wherever applicable. Cross-Tool Electrical Type Mapping Another very important requirement is that electrical pin types must map correctly across all supported EDA export formats. For example: If exported to Altium, the pin type should match Altium’s supported type system. The same should apply to OrCAD, KiCad, Eagle, Expedition, and similar tools. Electrical meaning must not be lost during export or conversion. Built-In Symbol and Library Features The tool should include a built-in library of default generic and discrete symbols, such as: Resistor Capacitor Inductor Transformer Diode Transistor Relay Connector Fuse Switch Crystal Op-amp Generic IC blocks Other commonly used default symbols The tool should also provide: Option to manually create custom symbols Option to edit automatically generated symbols Proper symbol library creation and management Save, classify, and organize symbols properly Reuse symbol families and templates where needed Editing and User Experience Requirements The tool must provide a practical and smooth editing experience with features such as: Clean and accurate symbol editor window Easy pin editing Pin name, pin number, pin type, and visibility controls Electrical type editing Pin length adjustment Grid snapping Rotation and mirror options Origin or reference point control Line, arc, box, and circle drawing tools Undo and redo Zoom in and zoom out Alignment and spacing tools Symbol preview before save or export Smart Functional Requirements The tool should also include smart automation features such as: OCR or image interpretation from datasheet screenshots Automatic pin name recognition Automatic pin number extraction Automatic functional grouping suggestion Family-based symbol generation logic Duplicate pin handling Multi-unit IC support where applicable Rule-based validation for generated symbols Template-based generation for common IC categories such as: Microcontrollers Memory ICs Analog ICs Power ICs Logic ICs Connectors Export Requirements The final generated symbols or libraries should support export to multiple EDA tools such as: Altium OrCAD KiCad Eagle Expedition Other similar tools where possible UI and Application Requirements The application should also include: User profile creation and management Project save and load support Light mode Dark mode System default mode Modern and user-friendly interface Fast workflow for bulk symbol generation Search and filter for saved symbols Category-based library view Technology Flexibility There is no strict restriction on the development language, framework, file structure, or software platform. The developer may use any suitable programming language, framework, architecture, or technology stack. There is no language preference from our side. The main priority is achieving the required functionality, workflow, and output quality correctly. Important Requirement Compliance and Payment Condition Please read this carefully. These requirements are mandatory and not optional. All listed requirements and workflow expectations must be implemented properly. The expected functionality, logic, automation flow, and output quality must be satisfied fully. If the tool does not achieve the required result as expected, the project will not be considered complete. In such a case, payment will not be released. Payment will be released only after the requested requirements are fully achieved and verified. Scope Clarification Please note that these are the initial core requirements only. Additional minor refinements, fine-tuning requirements, small workflow adjustments, UI corrections, and add-on convenience features may be shared later during the development process. These smaller updates may not be explicitly listed here at this stage, but they are considered part of the expected fine-tuning process. Final Expectation The goal is to develop a professional, structured, accurate, and practical symbol automation tool that can significantly reduce manual effort in schematic symbol creation while maintaining industry-standard quality and export compatibility across multiple EDA platforms.
