Start NowEmbedded rules and constraints allow PCB design intent to be conveyed clearly, reducing overall confusion among stakeholders. These instructions walk through Constraint Manager for OrCAD.
As we continue to shrink the electronics in our lives, the need for concise documentation grows more important at each node. The dimensions we provide are the determinants of success.
Achieving precise tolerances throughout your PCB design reduces errors and speeds the design to manufacturing process.
A constraint driven approach makes your PCB design process smoother. Eliminate the need for multiple design reviews as well as shorten the overall design process.
Easily reuse validated constraints and improve design quality and time to market.

Follow this step-by-step description of the importance of impedance matching in PCB design and learn about methods for achieving impedance matching.
Parasitic capacitance and inductance can create major problems in your digital, analog, or mixed signal boards. Here are some design tips that can help.
Crosstalk can cause a lot of problems in the performance of a circuit board. Here are some guidelines on how to reduce crosstalk in your PCB layout designs.
Routing DDR and high-speed bus interfaces can be one of the most daunting tasks in your design. With the new bus designer, all you need to do is simply describe the bus you are trying route and...
Even as everything related to electronics shrinks in size, a few small areas that we have been able to ignore so far remain. Along with the physical reduction, we also encounter reductions in our...
Capture electrical constraints early in the design process and automatically communicate them to PCB layout designers directly from the circuit schematic environment.
High Definition Media Interface is a beautiful thing. Back when 1080P meant something, the HDMI spec entered the scene as an upgrade on the legacy trio or quintet of RCA cables. The number of...
Design rules are nothing new. Our ability to create specific and concrete rules to govern the results should not be overlooked. From the first placement study to the final result, capturing a...
Quickly route complex, high-density boards for a variety of applications, including industrial- and military-grade designs
This week’s Working with OrCAD video, Constraint Manager 2, discusses how the constraint manager within OrCAD products constitutes the central focus point. This allows the designer to control the...
A sound constraint management design process helps to foster a correct-by-design approach, reduces time-to-market, and ultimately optimizes the design process—eliminating the undefined,...
Our most recent webinar, Constraint-driven design with OrCAD Capture, provided attendees with an overview of Constraint Manager for OrCAD. It is a new option available directly within the OrCAD...
Setting up and implementing a constraint-driven design flow may seem like a daunting planning task, however spending the time upfront can save you hours (or even days) by preventing design...
OrCAD helps you design better by providing real-time visual feedback for electrical, physical and spacing constraints so you can easily avoid and fix violations.
