Altium’s PDN Analyzer tool integrates directly with Altium Designer so you can easily troubleshoot and detect issues like insufficient or excessive copper, uncontrolled voltage drops, marginal voltage at critical power pins, copper islands or peninsulas and similar issues that may be present with the power system in your PCB design. PDN refers to the power system on printed circuit boards for active circuits. This system includes all interconnections from the voltage regulator module and the metallization of pads and die on integrated circuits that are used to supply and return power current. IC supply voltage limits must be met across the entire length of the power delivery network. Accurately validating your power budget means considering minimum and maximum device limits, worst-case voltage drops, and combined return-path currents. PDN Analyzer shows you exactly where these problems arise.

Your design’s testability can determine how fast your product gets to manufacturing. But testing at the physical stage is too late to catch commonly made mistakes that lead to expensive delays. XJTAG® DFT Assistant integrates directly within your Altium Designer unified design environment, running Design For Test (DFT) checks on boundary scan chains directly on the schematic diagram. Easily confirm that scan chains are correctly connected to each JTAG-enabled device in your design, and confirm that each signal in the chain has been accurately connected and terminated. XJTAG® DFT Assistant performs the checks needed to ensure your JTAG chain is right before you finalize your layout. XJTAG® Chain Checker weeds out the commonly made errors, reports issues early in the process and lets you get past the mistakes that could hinder JTAG testing.

The quality of your code is valued by its efficiency and ability to execute flawlessly. Is your current development environment providing you with the tools you need to create clean, efficient, and correct code? You’re responsible for developing solutions that impact human longevity and safety, and the last thing you can afford to compromise on is your integrated development environment. The TASKING Embedded Software Development solutions provide an industry-leading ecosystem for your entire software development process. Each TASKING compiler is developed for a specific architecture and meets the unique needs of your specialized industry requirements including automotive, industrial, telecom, and datacom. A complete integrated development environment allows you to create error-free and efficient code with compilers, debuggers, embedded internet, and RTOS support for industry-leading microprocessors and microcontrollers.

Automatically heal damaged copper areas during interactive editing. User-defined design selections can be easily refined. Interactively move components and enclosures in the 3D environment with real-time clash detection of violations. When your technology requirements are such; benefit from advanced technology features such as flexi-rigid design, embedded components, and chip-on-board to provide you with the functionality you require. Use our standard or create your own extensive BOM, pick and place, PCB acceptance reports, and netlists in a number of different formats with ease from Pulsonix. Unique to Pulsonix, construction lines provide user-definable lines within your design from which to guide your design items. Using construction lines you can create complex board outlines or align irregular shapes and design items. Define rules for automatically creating naming conventions for new and existing styles.

Engineers at the world's most innovative electronics companies build with Quilter. Quilter is fully compatible with your existing designs and libraries. All completed designs are returned in the same file format they were submitted for inspection, modification, and export. Design your schematic using your ECAD application of choice (currently Altium or KiCAD). Upload your schematic and empty board file. Quilter auto-detects relationships between parts. Define any design constraints for your board. We validate tolerances against top fab houses. Quilter explores dozens of candidates and validates that all designs pass DRCs. Review candidates, select your favorite, and download board files for fabrication and testing. Quilter is more like a human designer than it is like an auto router. Quilter manages all aspects of PCB design including routing traces, placing components, managing board stackups, and generating custom pours.

JTAG Maps™ is an intuitive Altium extension that allows engineers to quickly assess the test possibilities offered by the JTAG devices within their design. Until now engineers could often spend hours manually highlighting the boundary-scan nets of a design to determine test coverage. Boundary-scan device model files (BSDLs) are pivotal to any JTAG/boundary-scan process as they indicate precisely which pins can be controlled or observed by JTAG/boundary-scan. However JTAG Maps can work with or without BSDL models and includes an 'assume scan covered' option. While most users will want to simply use the coverage report that JTAG Maps for Altium can provide, it is possible to import a more accurate picture. After exporting a JTAG ProVision project, the data can be sent for further analysis. A simple message file containing full fault-coverage information can then be read back into JTAG Maps for display/highlighting.

Accelerate your time to market with AllSpice, enabling modern revision control and collaboration for native electronic designs. Turn those three-hour-long, in-person, and hard-to-schedule meetings into digital, asynchronous design reviews. Run your design reviews like a pull request. Automate your review packages. Generate PCB, schematic, and BOM redlines that automatically highlight your design changes. Like a software diff, but for circuits instead of code. Never make the same mistake twice. Create templates and checklists that auto-populate for new design reviews to remind you (and everyone else in your team) what to watch out for next time. Agile hardware development starts with better design reviews. Start, merge, or approve requests where you can share design updates and ask for feedback. Give people outside your team, like mechanical or firmware engineers, a web browser view of your designs.

Today’s electronic designs are becoming increasingly complex, making it harder to detect errors that generate high costs and hundreds of work hours. Detecting these errors in advance can be instrumental in preventing these damages. Unfortunately, in many cases, these errors are discovered only in the testing phase or at the customer’s site. BQR’s CircuitHawk is a powerful and unique (patent based) design error detection and stress analysis tool for electrical circuits. CircuitHawk detects design errors during the design phase, before layout and production. This way, no schematic, connectivity or stress errors are found in the qualification tests during final verification. CircuitHawk shortens design cycles and time to market, which in turn saves a lot of money and helps bolster corporate reputation. CircuitHawk is the only tool integrating design error detection with electrical stresses, thermal, MTBF and service life prediction at the schematic level, before PCB layout and production.
