How do you add a decoupling cap to a 32KB RAM?

Question

Eagle v9.1.3 Standard IC CY62256NLL-70PXC CY62256NLL-70PXC Library: memory-sram Static RAMS (urn:adsk.eagle:library:278) Sub-library: CY62256LL-?* Item: CY62256LL-PXC DIL28-6 The Symbol shows one object for the chip and two other devices that are VCC and GND. They seem to be categorized as P in the Symbol drawing, obviously for Power. Here's the question: how do I put a decoupling cap on schematic for the IC if the power pins only show on the board? Thanks, Don P.S. Is there an easier/faster way to add antispike/decoupling caps to ICs in the schematic? Has anyone done a video on this?

Don, After placing the RAM device on the schematic, move to the side tool bar and select 'Invoke' and left click on the RAM device. This will pop-up a menu that will allow you to select and place the 'P' part containing the power pins onto the schematic. Then you can connect the power to part and place bypass caps. Back in the old days, a lot of schematics would place all of the bypass caps on a separate page. I guess you could do something like this, place all of the caps together in a 'power supply' section, then when placing parts in the layout, just move the bypass caps where you want them. I like having the caps on the schematic right near the parts, so I know that I have them in the right spots. Good luck! Gene
