AUSTIN, TX – Patchr launched a PCB design software for hobbyists and educators. The new tool integrates with PCB manufacturers such as OSH Park and MacroFab, and milling machines like Bantam Tools.
"For too long, you've needed an EE degree to be able to design a circuit board," said Eric Schneider, CEO and founder of Patchr. "As a maker myself, I've been disappointed in the usability of PCB design software, so I assembled a team to build a better solution. Today, we're proud to introduce the world to Patchr.io.
“The industry is stuck in a square because no one has given makers the option to create a circle. Patchr allows makers to be as creative with their boards as they are with their inventions."
Two software versions are available: free/open-source and premium.
