PCB design suite checks up on fabrication
Innoveda has announced an enhanced version of its popular PowerPCB printed circuit board layout system that incorporates the powerful CAM350T DFF Audit module for board fabrication checking.
Available immediately, this feature-packed series is the first new PowerPCB configuration offered by Innoveda since its acquisition of PADS Software last year.
Concurrent with the introduction of the 200 Series and over the next four weeks, Innoveda plans to ship more than 11,000 copies of PowerPCB version 4.0.
This latest version, on which the 200 Series is based, incorporates a powerful design for fabrication module, expanded database capabilities, new routing and scripting enhancements, and tighter integration with other Innoveda tools.
The PowerPCB 200 series is an advanced design environment for printed circuit boards.
It offers users a powerful, shape-based, rules-driven design layout solution.
PowerPCB features automatic and interactive routing and superior OLE automation functionality for seamless interoperability with front-end design and back-end test, repair and manufacturing processes.
This integration provides a strong foundation for manufacturers of electronic products, enabling them to quickly and easily complete complex designs and speed time to volume production.
The PowerPCB 200 series enables customers to complete large PCBs and save time throughout the design and fabrication processes.
The series comprises: the unlimited database option that enables designers to create PCBs with a virtually unlimited number of database connections; the unlimited dynamic route editor option that saves time in PCB design by aiding designers in the routing of connections; a DFF audit module for performing detailed design-for-fabrication checks in the layout environment, a physical design reuse capability that automates the duplication of replicated circuits on a PCB; and BlazeRouter, the rules-based angle-free autorouter.
