Synopsis

Complete PCB Design Using OrCad Capture and Layout provides instruction on how to use the OrCAD design suite to design and manufacture printed circuit boards. The book is written for both students and practicing engineers who need a quick tutorial on how to use the software and who need in-depth knowledge of the capabilities and limitations of the software package. There are two goals the book aims to reach:

The primary goal is to show the reader how to design a PCB using OrCAD Capture and OrCAD Layout. Capture is used to build the schematic diagram of the circuit, and Layout is used to design the circuit board so that it can be manufactured.

The secondary goal is to show the reader how to add PSpice simulation capabilities to the design, and how to develop custom schematic parts, footprints and PSpice models. Often times separate designs are produced for documentation, simulation and board fabrication. This book shows how to perform all three functions from the same schematic design. This approach saves time and money and ensures continuity between the design and the manufactured product.

• Information is presented in the exact order a circuit and PCB are designed
• Straightforward, realistic examples present the how and why the designs work, providing a comprehensive toolset for understanding the OrCAD software
• Introduction to the IPC, JEDEC, and IEEE standards relating to PCB design
• Full-color interior and extensive illustrations allow readers to learn features of the product in the most realistic manner possible

From the Back Cover

Complete PCB Design Using OrCAD Capture and Layout is the first book to offer a complete guide on how to use the OrCAD design suite to design and manufacture printed circuit boards. Professionals and students will find this book to be an easily accessible resource covering topics from the basic PCB design principles to advanced levels of specific PCB layout, post processing, and PCB design for manufacturability (DFM) and signal integrity (EMI/EMC). Detailed instructions and realistic examples drawing from industry standards provide the reader with a comprehensive toolset on how to construct OrCAD Capture parts using the Capture Library Manager, Part Editor, and PSpice Model Editor. The examples build upon one another to show the multi-layered approach and uses of PCB Design and an extensive array of full color images designed to give the readers the most realistic examples possible. Padstacks are used as the foundation of both footprint design and PCB routing, so the reader will come away from Complete PCB Design with an in-depth knowledge of the extensive capabilities (and limitations) of the OrCAD software package. Schematic designs allow the reader to learn how to add PSpice simulation capabilities to the design, and how to develop custom schematic parts, footprints and PSpice models. • Information is presented in the exact order a circuit and PCB are designed• Straightforward, realistic examples present the how and why the designs work, providing a comprehensive toolset for understanding the OrCAD software• Introduction to the IPC, JEDEC, and IEEE standards relating to PCB design • Full-color interior and extensive illustrations allow readers to learn features of the product in the most realistic manner possible
