AutoTRAX EDA is a powerful
multiplatform integrated
Electronic Design Suite for Electronic Engineers. It has all the features you expect
and need to rapidly and easily take your design from conception through to production.
It’s in-built hierarchical project manager lets you perform both top-down and bottom-up
design and reuse design components and sub-systems.
Starting with its easy to use
Schematic Capture mode,
you can drag pre-created parts onto your design sheets and rapidly and reliably
connected the terminals together using wires, buses and off-page connectors. AutoTRAX
ensures that your design remains correct throughout with no ‘dangling wires’ or
design rule violations.
You can also create your own parts either in-place on your design sheets or using
the
integrated Part Creator. Again, design integrity
is maintained throughout using the AutoTRAX’s design rule checker.
Once you have created your design you can rapidly simulate
it’s analog performance using the build in virtual instruments such as oscilloscopes
and signal generators. Multiple analyses can be produced using the industry standard
SPICE 3f5 simulator that comes free with AutoTRAX.
When you are satisfied with your design and simulation results, you can then quickly
proceed to produce your finished and populated PCB board without leaving the AutoTRAX
program. The AutoTRAX
PCB Designer will take your hierarchical
design and place the components, with or without your assistance. Next AutoTRAX
can either
autoroute your board or you can use a combination
of automatic and manual routing to quickly and reliably complete all electrical
wiring. The design of AutoTRAX’s internal data ensures you main full electrical
integrity with your schematic design. No surprises with lost or missing PCB tracks
or wires, or those ‘extra’ wires.
Now that you have your design finished and routed you can then produce all
Computer Aided Manufacturing files you will need
to produce the board, drill the holes, cut it’s profile, order parts using the Bill
Of Materials, and place your parts using the pick and place files. These files can
be place together and forwarded to your favorite board manufacturers, electronically
via email.
In only a
short time you will see the fruits of your
labor and will be pleased at the
time and money you have
saved.
