BluePrint-PCB v. 3.6 software integrates BluePrint-PCB and Cadence OrCAD PCB Designer and Allegro PCB Layout tools. Integration automates the PCB documentation process for Cadence tools and eliminates all manual file transfer between applications. Automatically extracts and loads OrCAD and Allegro data. Works with new and existing PCB layouts. Automatically updates documentation packages created through the integration. Creates or updates existing documents directly from Allegro PCB Design System menus. EDA data transfer occurs automatically in the background. Sets hatch patterns for copper on PCB CAD layers, displays IPC standard annotation labels denoting the flip (mirror) status, displays process step filtered by an assembly variant in an assembly PCB view or process step chart. Sets drill symbol size for each hole size.
