To remove an existing component from the design:
- 
Select the Configuration view of the design. 
- 
Select the component to remove in the Components tree. If the component to remove has any dependent component in the design, you must remove the dependent components first. 
- 
Click the Remove button next to the Components tree. The component is removed from the design and its pads can be used by other components. 
| Removing a component cannot be undone. If you accidentally remove a component, you must add it as a new component and configure it manually. |
