Specctra is a commercial PCB auto-router originally developed by John F. Cooper and David Chyan of Cooper & Chyan Technology, Inc. (CCT) in 1989. [2] The company and product were taken over by Cadence Design Systems in May 1997. [3] [2] [4] Since its integration into Cadence's Allegro PCB Editor, the name of the router is Allegro PCB Router ...
In electronic design, wire routing, commonly called simply routing, is a step in the design of printed circuit boards (PCBs) and integrated circuits (ICs). It builds on a preceding step, called placement , which determines the location of each active element of an IC or component on a PCB.
OrCAD Systems Corporation was a software company that made OrCAD, a proprietary software tool suite used primarily for electronic design automation (EDA). The software is used mainly by electronic design engineers and electronic technicians to create electronic schematics, and perform mixed-signal simulation and electronic prints for manufacturing printed circuit boards (PCBs).
DipTrace is a proprietary software suite for electronic design automation (EDA) used for electronic schematic capture and printed circuit board layouts. DipTrace has four applications: schematic editor, PCB editor with built-in shape-based autorouter and 3D preview, component editor (schematic symbol), and pattern editor (PCB footprint).
EasyEDA is a web-based electronic design automation (EDA) tool suite that enables hardware engineers to design, simulate, share (publicly and privately) and discuss schematics, simulations and printed circuit boards, and to create a bill of materials, Gerber files, pick and place files and documentary outputs in the file formats PDF, PNG, and SVG.
The EMN File contains the PCB outline, the position of the parts, positions of holes and milling, keep out regions and keep in regions. The EMP file contains the outline and height of the parts. Some CAD software allows the use of a map file to load more detailed part models.
The resist material protects the copper from dissolution into the etching solution. The etched board is then cleaned. A PCB design can be mass-reproduced in a way similar to the way photographs can be mass-duplicated from film negatives using a photographic printer. FR-4 glass epoxy is the most common insulating substrate.
EAGLE is a scriptable electronic design automation (EDA) application with schematic capture, printed circuit board (PCB) layout, auto-router and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) features. EAGLE stands for Easily Applicable Graphical Layout Editor ( German : Einfach Anzuwendender Grafischer Layout-Editor ) and is developed by CadSoft Computer ...
