OrCAD X Coming Soon

The new constraint panel includes visual graphics, making the industry’s most powerful constraint system the easiest to use.

Take the pain out of building footprints. Hundreds of industry standard footprint templates can be used to parametrically generate IPC compliant footprints.

Live BOM is a bill of materials optimization and supply chain intelligence solution integrated directly into OrCAD X Capture. Live BOM is being enhanced to forecast component supply chain trends like:

• Lead time
• Inventory change
• Price range
• Market availability

This provides you with the intelligence to identify possible obsolescence, shortage, or pricing issues ahead of time.

 Scalpel cut allows you to easily slice traces simplifying:

• Footprint replacements on an already routed board
• Preserve existing routed area
• Circuit area replacements

Sliding via stacks allows you to easily move them along the trace while changing the connection stack up. While improved delay tuning efficiently uses all available space without introducing DRCs. 

Sigrity X technology is integrated within OrCAD X Presto PCB Editor, enabling access to impedance and coupling analysis, as well as TopXP right within your design environment. Easily identify impedance and coupling problems using a color-coded scale that assists in early issue detection with simulation table data, providing exact numeric calculations. Further analysis can be conducted on single-ended and differential nets using a general-purpose topology extraction and exploration environment for what-if analysis of signals.
