===== Implicit pins =====

As an alternative to using visible pins drawn in a symbol, gnetlist supports defining connections between named nets and pins using the "''net=''" attribute.  This is commonly used with [[slotting|slotted components]], to avoid either having to add power pins to each slot or having to place an separate "power connections" component into the schematic.

<note tip>For more information on using the "''net=''" attribute, see the [[geda:na_howto|net= attribute HOWTO]].</note>
