Overview

PCB design creation is more than just schematic capture. To meet product specifications, costs and time to market, the designer needs to make the right decisions about component selection and which technology to use as early in the design process as possible. Effective PCB design software provides the user with all of the tools necessary for component search and selection, constraint definition, design reuse, variant management and documentation output in a single seamless environment.

This webinar illustrates how DxDesigner, part of the Expedition Enterprise PCB design flow, provides a broad range of capabilities that addresses these needs in an intuitive and easy-to-use integrated environment, enabling you to better focus on creative and productive printed circuit board design creation.

What You Will Learn

  • How to improve efficiency with integrated constraint-driven schematic design and layout
  • How to save cost and engineering time through intelligent PCB component search and selection, IP reuse and production variants
