Written entirely in Assembler Language by
Hardware Design Engineers (not utility
programmers), CIRCAD boasts the highest
run-time performance of any PCB CAD
package on the market today. Schematics,
netlists, circuit boards, and gerber plots are
all at your fingertips awaiting your beck and
call. For the more advanced users, CIRCAD
even has a "reverse engineering" feature
that enables you to start with a scanned
image of a PCB and work backwards to the
schematic.
The product portfolio consists of software
for the design of electrical circuitry to be
implemented on printed circuit boards
(PCBs) and programmable logic devices
(FPGAs/CPLDs) and includes: schematic
capture, component database, SPICE
simulation, FPGA/CPLD synthesis, design
analysis, PCB layout, autorouting and more.
Qcad 11.0 is a complete schematics and
PCB design software running with Windows
95/98/NT operating system. It includes a
state of the art autorouter, together with a
post-routing optimizer. Depending on the
features and capacity, Qcad is available at
$49, $99, $199, and $299 US.
