Printed circuit board (PCB) design software is used in order to design printed circuit board. A printed circuit board (PCB) mechanically supports and electrically connects electronic components using conductive tracks, pads and the other features. All components on the board are soldered and interlinked by the copper tracks. The PCB can be a single layer and can go up to many layers.
PCB design software is used by engineers for designing the printed circuit board on a device, by means of several features that aim to address problems an engineer faces such as those associated to signal and power integrity, while designing a PCB and ease the overall designing process. PCB design software is incorporated with other related software such as PLM, which assists engineers to give a better understanding regarding designs and layouts of PCBs.
