Cadence Design Systems, Inc, has unveiled OrCAD Capture
Marketplace, a Web-enabled PCB design environment which
includes online store for applications.
As per Cadence The OrCAD Capture Marketplace will offer
below advantages for PCB designers:
1.Productivity through convenience, with on-demand access
to information, design data, and resources from across the
Web at the click of a button. Users will get a design environment
efficiently and conveniently conduct research and locate
essential materials, with easy access to the latest design-
or OrCAD-centric know-how.
2.Extensible and customizable design environment will support
access to an online store where they can find and download
apps, from Cadence and its channel partners, enabling enhanced
control of their design processes and flows through new
and enhanced features or capabilities.
3.More time on new product features or design technologies
can be minimized,by bringing content and resources directly
to OrCAD Capture users, and pointing them to OrCAD-centric
product and design information--including application notes,
whitepapers, product tips and videos.
4.Through apps or scripting customization, designers can
apply automation to manual processes and complete design
tasks faster. Difficult operations can be streamlined, and
custom features that do not exist natively can be created
or downloaded, further enhancing and extending the Capture
environment.
Cadence says the OrCAD Capture Marketplace is closely aligned
with the EDA360 vision, which emphasizes the need to advance
design beyond the traditional EDA boundaries in order to
meet new design challenges.
"Cadence is the company to put a PCB design ecosystem
at the engineers' fingertips with the new OrCAD Capture
Marketplace and an online store for apps," said Manny
Marcano, president of EMA Design Automation. "This
will provide OrCAD users on-demand access to design data,
information, and product enhancements directly within their
OrCAD design environment, taking OrCAD PCB solutions to
a new level."
"The OrCAD Capture Marketplace was designed with one
goal in mind-advancing the capabilities of PCB designers
by enabling access to the resources engineers need in a
faster, more convenient and efficient manner," said
Josh Moore, senior product marketing manager at Cadence.
"We will continue building and evolving the marketplace,
with more apps and more content, to help ensure engineers
can quickly find what they need, when they need it."
The OrCAD Capture Marketplace will be available by the
end of Q2.
