Hi,
I have selected a two part component IC as you can see below

and I have set both of their name the same : U1A , U2B but after I update my pcb I have seen two different ICs!!! How can solve this problem?
 

Hi,

I'm not familiar with Altium...

But you say U1A and U2B..
this is confusing, because "U1" designates the IC in board
And "A" and "B" designates a sub circuit within an IC.

So if both is in one IC I expect "U1A" and "U1B" (no U2_)

Sorry it was a mistake in typing.
I named them U1A and U1B

Hi Baby_2, Alexsander from Altium here. I'm actually not sure about this one. Usually Altium Designer will pick a single footprint for your multipart component. check to make sure that everything is properly named and run the ECO again to update your PCB. If that doesn't work give support a call and they'll help you out. Its better to call support and get an answer in a few minutes rather than spending an hour or so trying to make it work.
