One of the fastest growing technologies in printed circuit board (PCB) design is high density interconnect (HDI). HDI boards allow for higher circuitry density than traditional circuit boards due to a more concentrated arrangement of smaller components, creating more concise pathways. Blind and/or buried vias are commonly used to optimize space in HDI boards, and […]
EDA Tool Licensing can vary greatly between different tools, some offer subscription licenses while others offer perpetual (or both). There can be many challenges when trying to juggle demand across multiple tools, Altium’s Judy Warner interviews Freedom CAD’s COO, Scott Miller, and Director of Sales and Marketing, Scott McCurdy, about how FCS acquires and uses […]
PCB Designer, Bryan LaPointe presented “Designing More Efficiently: Layout from a New Perspective” at Cadence’s CDNLive Boston held September 2nd at the Boston Marriott Burlington. His presentation demonstrated various techniques he has developed to design more efficiently in Cadence Allegro. A video of the presentation is available above if you weren’t able to be there […]
As board speeds and densities continue to increase, it’s becoming more difficult for PCB designers to shorten their design cycles and meet time-to-market demands. This month, PCBDesign007 is featuring an article by Freedom CAD’s Scott Miller on how to reduce design cycle time. Below is a snippet, click here to read the full article in […]
