Design circuits quickly and easily with McCAD Schematics Plus. This affordable software captures precise schematics with ease, making it both accurate and powerful.
McCAD E.D.S software, published by VAMP Inc., is a complete family of integrated electronic design systems that work across multiple platforms, including MS Windows and Macintosh OS. The software offers a range of design environments and system configurations that can be tailored to meet the specific needs of different designers.
The McCAD Electronic Design Systems is a package of modules that takes the designer through the complete design cycle, including Schematic capture, Simulation (analog and digital), Printed Circuit Board layout, Autorouting, and Gerber generation for board fabrication. The software offers the technical range needed by electronic designers while providing control and flexibility.
One of the modules within the software package is Schematic Plus, which offers a robust design environment that allows the designer to quickly create basic or hierarchical designs. It supports simple as well as complex hierarchies and provides an intuitive design that makes operation quick and easy. The module has a completely integrated, modern user interface and circuit design environment that allows you to quickly and easily capture your schematic designs.
Other features of Schematic Plus include the optional 3SPICE simulator that lets you perform your simulation and analyze the results using a powerful signal processor and waveform viewer. The software also allows you to customize almost everything in the design environment, making it ideal for defining modular circuit designs either Hierarchically or Flattened.
Schematic Plus comes complete with symbol and package libraries containing thousands of parts and integrated symbol editing. This full-featured schematic editor also includes standard features such as "rubberbanding," auto-scrolling, zoom, copy/paste/undo, and rotation/flipping of parts—all while maintaining the usual intuitive user interface found in all McCAD software systems.
Other features include the Device Browser/Chooser, a powerful yet easy-to-use parts browser that lets you filter the list down by part name, functional category, manufacturer, or keyword. The Library Symbol Editor lets you create or edit your part symbols in the library symbol editor and supports rotation, copy/paste, and grid lines.
Users can also benefit from the User Scriptable Extractor that allows you to create custom Bill of Materials (BOM) reports. The extractor is fully scriptable, and almost any arrangement of data can be extracted and reported, making the collected data reportable to almost any other tool or database system.
McCAD Schematics Plus includes many key features, including 2nd Generation Capture System, Hierarchical and Flat Architecture, Project Management, Unrestricted sheets per project, approximate 60,000 library devices, users can add new devices, Hierarchical Library editor. Reports Netlist, PartsList and other reports are User Scriptable, User-assignable attributes, Customizable BOM reports, "Rubberbanding", auto-scrolling, zoom, copy/paste/undo, and rotation/flipping of parts, Project Tree Manager, Hot linking with 3Spice simulator, Upgrading designers can maintain Library and Design documents from Basic Schematic System using a provided conversion utility.
One limitation of the software is that some features are disabled in the demo version. Overall, the McCAD E.D.S software is a comprehensive electronic design system that offers a wide range of features and customization options that meet the unique needs of electronic designers.
