TeamPCB

Product Highlights

TeamPCB™ allows multiple designers to simultaneously work on the same PCB layout design. For PCB designs that are too large or complex to complete in the desired time frame, TeamPCB enables collaboration across geographically dispersed or functionally organized PCB design groups, to maximize productivity and dramatically shorten design times.

Integrated within the Board Station Series design environment the design team can optimize engineering effort and leverage outsourcing to minimize layout design time.

Benefits

  • Ideal for outsourcing
  • Reduce timeline for layout design
  • Collaborate across geographically dispersed teams

TeamPCB drastically reduces layout design time by facilitating parallel design processes on previously serial tasks. Here, a design has been split into three partitions that can each be edited independently.

Before Update: Guide pins enable designers to efficiently route up to the edge of, and between, partitions. In this photo the designer in Split 2 has chosen to view a "peer-to-peer" update of edits in Split 1.

After Update: The designer in Split 2 can now view edits from Split 1. Notice that the guide pins on the border between Split 1 and Split 2 have effectively guided the routing of nets that are shared between partitions.
