Which is the best software for PCB Design?
I am looking for the best possible software to design my printed circuit board layout. Any suggestions?
Unfortunately, there isn’t one. We have used OrCAD, Altium, Allegro, Expedition, Eagle, Board Station, Cadstar, ProTel, Tango, PADS… to name a few. Each one has its own set of good points and not so good points. It really just depends on what are your requirements in terms of features and budget.
Do you need software for schematics, layout or both? How complex is the PCB you will be designing? OrCAD and Allegro are both widely used in the Semiconductor industry.
Allegro and Cadstar are probably the better ones for complex boards. OrCAD is great for schematics but not so much for routing. Altium is probably the best value for money. You can even find software on a tight budget (including free software) which will not have too many bells and whistles but will do the basic design job you need.
The best thing for you to do is get a free 30-day trial version of the software you want. Check it out and make sure you are comfortable with it before buying anything. The real answer to your question is – the best software is the one you decide to use. Hope this helps. - http://makemycircuitboard.com
