*Any* schematic is copyright of the designer/ manufacturer of the
equipment, unless specifically released into the public domain.


** Copyright laws allow for " fair usage " .

Schematics are intended as service aids for those in a position to make use
of them.

So publication of one on a technical NG or web forum for the purpose of
discussion is ** fair usage**.



Similarly, any electronic design is copyright of the designer

** Nonsense.


and may also be the subject of patents,


** Extraordinarily unlikely.


& any attempt to examine the finished product and publish the resulting
schematic is breach of that copyright and/ or that patent.


** COMPLETE ******** !!!!!!!!!!

Any schem you generate yourself is copyright to YOU !!

The word " patent " means to ** REVEAL **.

YOU RIDICULOUS ASS !!



There has been case law on this subject in all countries that support
copyright and patent laws.


** None to support your asinine conclusions.

Tciao for Now!


** Drop dead.
