Software for designing electronic devices, including all major stages of simulation and PCB design.
EDWinXP is short for Electronic Design for Windows XP. The program is a set of built-specialized modules covering all stages of the development of the electronic device of any complexity: the creation of electronic circuits, simulation and performance analysis, printed circuit design and preparation of complete documentation for the assembly and production of the project. The composition EDWinXP includes the following utilities:
• Editor of electrical schematics Schematic Editor;
• Simulation analysis functionality and verify the behavior of the scheme - Mixed Mode Simulator and EDSpice;
• PCB Layout Editor to create PCB layout;
• Fabrication Manager, responsible for the preparation of output files for production (Photoplotter, NC Drill and others).
In addition, the package includes a variety of tools created validation schemes, for example:
• Thermal Analyzer - thermal analyzer controlling hot spots on the board;
• Electromagnetic Analyzer - Analyzer electromagnetic effects, including and signal integrity analysis.
Program features are huge. EDSpice simulator SPICE based on established and able to carry out simulation of nonlinear, transient and mixed processes. There is the possibility of a three-dimensional view developed PCB. Electromagnetic and thermal analyzers are very clear, boxes appear in the dynamics and volume. Present VHDL-editor with the ability to automatically create a project of VHDL-source (file formats CUPL, JEDEC, Xilinx). The composition of PCB Layout Editor includes autorouter Arizona, SPECCTRA and MaxRoute. The program allows you to export the schema format AutoCAD - DXF.
EDWinXP comes with an extensive component library (over 28,000 units), which may be updated, changed and expanded with an editor Model Parameter. Library members also includes microcontroller 8051 sets, AVR, PIC, Motorola, and the base 3D-model components.
Each project is presented as a hierarchical scheme of the plurality of sub-circuits and circuits which are stored in a single file on disk. All elements of the project - circuits, printed circuit boards, pre-production drawings and documents have links. Changes in one of the stages of automatic design in the real time mode is recorded on the remaining components of the system.
System design EDWinXP is paid. Versions of the program, there is a huge amount. Their cost ranges from $ 180 (for an initial option for students and researchers working within one year) to $ 1,800 (for unlimited professional version of the product). You can also install a trial, please pack the fourteen EDWinXP. After completing the form, the specified e-mail you will receive a link to download the program.
Install the software is not a problem, but you must make sure that the number of characters with spaces in the folder name was not more than eight pieces.
The program was created by the studio Visionics, a subsidiary of Norlinvest Ltd. It is located in a suburb of Stockholm, cottage Enebyberg.Visionics history began in 1983 with the advent of the first EDA-program - The CAD ABC. The great demand for this software has stimulated further research and development of EDA-applications. For thirty years, the company created CAD packages, setting new standards for design and won numerous international awards. The most famous products Visionics: CAD 1000, Comp CAD, Series Electronic Designer.
The program interface is written in English, assistant containing a brief introduction, also Russified.
EDWinXP design environment runs on personal computers running Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, XP, and 2000.
Distribution of the program: pay (from $ 180). There is a free 14-day trial version
