PADS Professional

EAGLE is electronic design automation (EDA) software that lets printed circuit board (PCB) designers seamlessly connect schematic diagrams, component placement, PCB routing, and comprehensive library content. Bring your design to life with a wide range of PCB layout tools in EAGLE. Drag and drop reusable design blocks between your projects, complete with synchronized schematic and PCB circuitry. Validate your schematic design with a complete set of electronic rule checks, so your schematic can stay on track. All changes stay automatically in sync between your schematic and layout, so you can focus on the creative process. Control your design flow and avoid unexpected surprises with fully customizable PCB design rules and constraints. Worry-free libraries are ready for your next design. Find and place parts dynamically linked to our growing catalog.

SOLIDWORKS PCB enables the productivity you need to design Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) quickly along with unique, collaboration between electrical and 3D mechanical design teams. It offers a clear advantage where ECAD-MCAD collaboration is critical for overall success of electronic product design. Define rigid-flex regions, layers, and stack thicknesses enabling single board rigid-flex PCB design. The rigid-flex layer stack regions can be defined with bend lines and angles and validated with 3D folding and component clearance checking to ensure layout correctness. Manage project, design files and documentation with SOLIDWORKS PCB-PDM Connector and the SOLIDWORKS PDM-based design and data management workflow. Securely store and index design data for fast retrieval, eliminate concerns over version control and data loss, and collaborate on design data from multiple locations. Unmatched ECAD-MCAD integration and collaboration with SOLIDWORKS that unifies design data.
