DownStream Technologies Announces CAM350 V. 9
The latest version of CAM350, for verification and optimization of PCBs, now includes Streams Rule Check - a new method of performing PCB design analysis. Allows users to shorten the time to analyze a design by performing Design Rule checks, Design for Manufacturing checks and Netlist Comparison checks simultaneously.
“Analyzing Gerber layers in CAM systems is often a tedious and time-consuming procedure. For each type of design analysis to be performed, a PCB designer needs to set up and execute it separately, then view the results separately,” said Rick Almeida, founder. “With Streams Rule Check, a designer can set-up once and execute a variety of analysis simultaneously - or all in one ‘stream’ - saving time and increasing productivity.”
It also allows the user to run different analysis in High Technology areas such as BGA or Wire Bond while running “standard” analysis on the balance of the design.
Enhancements to existing DFF and DRC functions include new negative plane checks, missing soldermask and floating antennas as well as other enhancements and corrections.
The new version is available at no additional charge to existing customers with a valid maintenance agreement.
