Diptrace basically have none of patterns from Analog Designs (RU-XX), and processes of their creation is not an easy one.ĥ. I need either huge selection of patterns or easy way to create them. In Diptrace, there is no way to do so, and this is a big problem - if during PCB design I'll decide that one pattern is better than another for tracing, I can't simply replace component in schematic - it loses all connections, and I have to redo all again. I should be able to specify pattern (DIP, SOIC, TSSOP or whatever) during conversion time, not during schematic time. Component creation in Diptrace is just horrible.ģ. There are quite a few others, but even these ones would help a lot. My prototype uses these components (if this helps): So far Diptrace has a lot of components, but (my luck, I guess) almost none of those that I was looking for. Program should either have a huge component library or allow to easy create a new component. So far Diptrace fits nicely here, but there several huge buts (see other items below).Ģ. I don't need autoplacement and autotracing - tried many programs, none works even remotely well, so I'll be doing manual placement and routing anyway. It should be able to generate PCB layout from schematic. Program should be able to handle both schematic capture and PCB layout. So here is the list of things that I'm looking for:ġ. So far I settled with Diptrace, but there are many things that I don't like, so may be there is a better option out there that I just don't know about. I tried several freeware/trialware EAD programs, but was not completely satisfied with any. I'm trying to do schematic capture and then convert it to PCB. I just started PCB design for my hobby project (it has both analog and digital parts in it). If you have gone wrong, DipTrace can suggest how it can be fixed or even automatically shift components into the right position which is where this program excels where others fail.First of all, hello all, and sorry for my (very) noobish questions. If you're not sure whether your circuit will work, there is a useful validator which checks whether what you've built will actually work in the real world. Creating projects is simple - it just requires dragging and dropping of all the components you need into the work area and then you subsequently make connections between pins to create your own circuit. DipTrace allows you to import projects and libraries such as LT Spice, CAD, Accel, Allegro, Mentor, Protel among many others so professionals will find this a really useful complementary tool to their existing toolbox. If you've ever thought about building your own PC from scratch then one thing you'll have to get familiar with is circuitry design?ĭipTrace is a professional tool that's not exactly easy for those that have not got much electronic know how but it does produce stunning results.
