DES PLAINES, IL - PCB Libraries has changed its name. The
company has said it will begin offering new tools beyond the scope of
CAD libraries, and has adopted the name
PCB Matrix Corporation.
The company’s new tools will reportedly help automate PCB design related tasks, by introducing software tools such as the
Symbol Modeler, an automated schematic symbol generator,
Board Planner to assist in part placement, and
Constraint Rule Editor used to define signal routing rules.
"We wanted to maintain the high reputation we established and meet
growing customer needs," said Tom Hausherr, CEO, "so we decided to keep
a part of our logo. ‘PCB Matrix’ will soon release a major upgrade to
the IPC-7351 LP Suite. The new LP Calculator will include support for
IPC-7251 through-hole technology and…include inch and mil units.”
