Easy-PC v. 26 PCB design software incorporates IPC-2581 export capability, plus over 25 other new technology features.

Fully implements IPC-2581 standard and includes a number of options to create the output required for manufacturing, assembly, and test. Incorporates new and enhanced design rules checks (DRC) and design for manufacturing (DfM) options in schematic capture and PCB design. Minimum Solder Mask Width, Solder Mask to Track, and Minimum Text Size aid manufacturability and prevent costly mistakes. Modified Pour Areas, a design verification check, alerts the designer to incomplete design changes that would not be incorporated in manufacturing. Unconnected Gates option removes unnecessary DRC warnings related to unconnected power pins in a multi-gate package.

Productivity and usability enhancements include:

New Toggle Layers dialog for complete control over how users want to see their design in various scenarios with fast layer switching and combinations.

IDF Export adds new export options that enable users to fully protect their intellectual property (IP), which includes Removing illegal characters from Component Names and 'Including or Excluding Component Values.

The new 3D viewing option, Exclude off-board items, prevents components and other items that are not entirely within a board outline to be excluded from the view. This can help, for example, if it's a standard drawing outline with title blocks, it will exclude those portions that are not on a board.

Additional enhancements include Interactive Mitre/Fillet of Any Angle segments, Changes to the Rulers to further support 4K monitors, Cancel Move After Paste, Goto Text and Values and an enhanced Library Manager Report.
