Upgrade from CADSTAR to eCADSTAR today

 

eCADSTAR is the next generation of CADSTAR, the classic PCB design solution used and trusted by layout engineers since 1987.

 

eCADSTAR takes on CADSTAR’s legacy keeping the tools and features that made CADSTAR remarkable plus upgrading eCADSTAR with the latest technology to make it a modern EDA solution. Additionally, it comes with excellent local and global support.

Its Internet-connected capabilities provide freedom to explore your manufacturer’s catalogue for parts with live updates to stock and pricing. Seamlessly use online parts in your designs for rapid prototyping and include them in your central library for maximum re-use.

2D/3D simultaneous design in the PCB Editor gives you the best of both worlds. Detect collisions and DRC in real-time during the interactive layout in 3D. Whilst 2D focuses typically on routing topology and patterns. You can place and route critical item in 2D whilst seeing how it relates to other objects in 3D.

Structure your schematics to maximise design re-use opportunities with multi-instanced block hierarchy. In the Schematic Editor define one block and create as many instances you need, upgrading key schematics quickly and safely. one of many ways eCADSTAR saves saving critical design time.

Electronics are part of our everyday lives, from for example handhelds to car dashboards and even animal feed monitors. You need an EDA solution that is as connected and intuitive as the technology you want to design.
