There are many kinds of software for drawing PCB boards. What software is better for beginners to draw PCB boards? For a beginner who does not know how to choose. Today, editor recommends four kinds of software for drawing PCB boards for beginners, these are also many engineers commonly use PCB board drawing software. The following is a brief analysis of these four kinds of software.
1. Protel
Protel is used more by domestic people, and less used abroad. It belongs to the mainstream of low-end design in China. It is easy to learn, easy to use, and suitable for beginners. The only downside of Protel is that it takes up a lot of system resources and requires higher computer configuration.
2. PADS
PADS suitable for low-end design, easier to use than Protel, easy to use, and can be called the uncrowned king of low-end.
3. CAM350
Many companies use CAM350 to confirm files in their later projects. Therefore, for companies using CAM350, it is best for customers to provide CAM350 files directly, so as to reduce problems in the later process of importing.
4. AD
AD is mainly an integrated electronic product development system launched by the original Protel developer Altium, which runs on Windows XP and Windows7 operating systems. AD provides designers with a new design solution through the perfect integration of schematic design, circuit simulation, PCB drawing and editing, topology logic automatic routing, signal integrity analysis and design output, etc., so that designers can easily design, skilled use of this software will greatly improve the quality and efficiency of circuit design.
These four softwares are easy to learn, easy to use and suitable for beginners. If they can be used proficiently, they can greatly improve their ability to draw PCB boards.
As for what software to use for drawing PCB boards, through the above simple explanation, believe that beginners should have a general understanding.
