Tech Tip: Routing a PCB design in a native 3D Tool
PCB design tools were built on 2D software methods in the 1980s. Many of today’s design tools still use that 2D code base. Mechanical tools have moved on to native 3D design. PCB has...
Tech Tip: Component Lists with Destination Matrix
Background The destination matrix enables convenient viewing and editing of a component list that has part variants. Variants were discussed in a previous Tech Tip: “Variation Management in Component Lists”. This brief video...
Tech Tip: Using Inhibit Layers to Clear Trace Patterns
In this tech tip, we will explore how you can clear a routed trace pattern on multiple conductive layers. In this design, the requirement is to have these traces on layer 7 to be...
