DES PLAINES, IL – PCB Libraries’ IPC-7351 LP Wizard has won the 2007 DesignVision Award (PCB Design Tool category), at DesignCon 2007. The tool was selected based on innovation, uniqueness, market impact, customer benefits and value to society.
This tool is said to greatly reduce the time it takes to build library parts and ensures compatibility with the latest IPC land pattern standard for surface mount design. The Wizard reportedly allows designers to view electronic library documentation using a search engine that can find the correct part quickly, calculate land patterns directly from component manufacturer dimensional datasheets, and output CAD library parts 10 to 20 times faster than any existing CAD tool with unmatched accuracy. The output is provided in virtually any CAD format. The LP Wizard also comes with 3,000 IPC-7351A CAD library parts and one year of maintenance.
"By automating a large part of the design process, we eliminated a lot of duplication of effort and countless possibilities for human error," said Nick Ban, vice president at PCB Libraries. "The user response has been very positive. The LP software has become a valuable tool for thousands of users all over the world."
