Description

Design Force is a revolutionary innovation in electrical design. It allows you to break down the boundaries of your electrical design process. The process of designing a product is becoming more complex. This often involves technologies that are difficult or impossible to use ECAD tools to address. Design Force allows design teams to access system-level design information as early as the planning and conceptual phases. This allows them to layout each product board while simultaneously considering the entire system view. Design Force uses the most current industry hardware and software. Users can design in a native 3D environment. This allows them to achieve optimal performance by using native 64-bit, multithreading, multicore processors. Design Force is compatible with multiple client-server implementations. You can also work from your corporate cloud.

Description

Trace is an innovative PCB design platform tailored for hardware teams, guiding them from initial concept to a fully manufactured board. It integrates advanced schematic capture and PCB layout tools with smart agents that comprehend the context of hardware design. Users can articulate their project requirements in natural language, enabling Trace to conduct thorough research, produce complex multi-sheet schematics, interpret datasheets, recommend components, verify their availability in real time, arrange parts, route multi-layer boards, optimize matched-length signals, and perform essential checks like ERC and DRC along with design reviews. With a comprehensive library boasting over 30,000 symbols and footprints, the platform sources data from leading electronic distributors. Additionally, Plan Mode delves into intricate tasks, poses clarifying questions, devises a detailed action plan, and initiates execution only after receiving user approval. Moreover, TraceRules ensures that preferences regarding components, layout restrictions, and manufacturing objectives are consistently maintained throughout user interactions, facilitating a smoother design process. This comprehensive approach not only enhances efficiency but also streamlines collaboration within hardware teams.
