Powerful schematic entry, professional level simulation and analysis in one affordable package

In today’s engineering design environment, electrical engineers are asked to perform a variety of challenges in a fraction of the time. Along with schematic entry, circuit simulation is becoming an integral part of the schematic design process. Recognizing this need, Cadence® has created the Cadence OrCAD® EE Designer suite—a highly integrated front-end design solution with Cadence OrCAD Capture and Cadence PSpice® AD in a single package.

OrCAD PCB Designer with PSpice

To stay competitive in today’s market, companies must get their designs from engineering through manufacturing with shorter design cycles. To increase their productivity, engineers need a set of powerful, intuitive, and integrated technologies that work seamlessly across the entire design flow. OrCAD PCB design suites including PSpice technology have a long history of addressing these demands.

Advanced Simulation Technology

OrCAD PCB Designer with PSpice included, the defacto industry standard PSpice A/D giving full-featured analog simulator with support for digital elements to help solve virtually any design challenge—from high-frequency systems to low-power IC designs. The powerful simulation engine is fully integrated with OrCAD Capture schematic entry tool, improving time to market and keeping operating costs in check. An interactive, easy-to-use graphical user interface provides complete control over the design process. Availability of resources such as models from many vendors, built-in mathematical functions, and behavioral modeling techniques make for an efficient design process.

Benefits

  • Provides fast, intuitive schematic editing
