System, method, and computer program product for schematic generation

A method for electrical schematic creation includes loading a schematic definition file, and determining circuit component placement relationships according to the schematic definition file and a component rule set. The method also includes defining a location of a first component of the schematic definition file, and defining locations of a plurality of second components of the schematic definition file in relation to the location of the first component. The method also includes creating a schematic output file corresponding to the circuit component placement relationships and the schematic definition file, so that the schematic output file describes an automatically-generated electrical schematic corresponding to the schematic definition file.
