Initially, the idea of autorouting sounds great. A machine that routes your board perfectly for you? Wouldn’t that be amazing? Unfortunately, early autorouters were far from perfect. Initially, the ...
Ah, the autorouter. Inside every PCB design tool, there’s a function called the ‘autorouter’. This function, when used correctly, is able to automagically lay traces between pads, producing a perfect ...

The SPECCTRA autorouter was constructed on a new shape-based technology conceived by Cooper and Chyan, and quickly became the industry standard for routing high-speed PCBs. This website uses cookies ...
Like all new technologies, it took a while for engineers to accept and promote the PCB. In the 1960s, Zeneth used to brag about using point-to-point wiring (Figure 1). Now everything is done with a ...
Mentor Graphics has introduced a tool that allows critical data paths to be autorouted. “We have been trying to get an autorouter to think like a design engineer: to recognise patterns and see the ...
RS Components has launched DesignSpark PCB Pro, an upgraded version of its PCB design suite with new productivity features. DesignSpark PCB Pro is aimed at professional electronic design engineers, ...
