Schematics are documentation.
- Signal flow from left-to-right
- and also when it doesn't confuse the purpose of the drawing - inputs of parts on left / outputs on right
- mixed i/o to go where it best indicates the function of the circuit
- Supply rails in descending voltage from top-to-bottom - where it makes the diagram more readable.
- Connectors & Ports - when possible, Inputs arriving from the left / Outbound pointing to the right... !
- preferably in a similar layout/order if they arrive on another sheet that makes them easier to mentally associate.
- same for connectors that appear on different or separate sheets.
