ExpressPCB Announces ExpressSCH Plus and ExpressPCB Plus Version 3.1

Reading time ( words)

ExpressPCB® is excited to announce the expansion of its Schematic Link and Netlist Validation tools to fully support the use of symbols in ExpressCSH Plus®. With the release of ExpressPCB Plus® Layout Software version 3.1 they expand the designer’s ability to create complex, multipage schematics, and fully validate the PCB layout.

ExpressPCB customers were very responsive to the version 3.1 release, and provided excellent feedback to help guide the development of the latest version.  With more robust support of symbols used in ExpressSCH Plus, there is now improved speed, stability, and quality of results in the Schematic Link and Netlist Validation tools.

“Our user community has emphasized the importance of schematic link and support for symbols in their design practices.  We took the time to work directly with several customers as we developed our tools, to address their needs.  The result is a robust tool set that helps designers projects move from concept to reality with confidence.” -  Michael Hebda, Product Manager

With additional updates to the SnapEDA API to provide current component pricing, availability, and purchase links; ExpressPCB continues to build simple, easy to use solutions for the overall design and fabrication processes.

The Schematic and Layout tools are simple and unencumbered by multiple layers of menus, options and settings that more advanced PCB Design suites require mastering before you even start on your design project.  If time is of the essence and there is a need to quickly turn out a prototype to get a project off the ground, then ExpressPCB is a great choice.

In this interview, Saline Lectronics (an Emerald EMS company) President Jason Sciberras talks about PCB designers offering packaging options in the bill of materials. As Jason explains, mil/aero manufacturers like Saline can’t make many changes to a design without getting recertified, so including approved packaging options in the BOM from the start is a great way to go. Are you offering options in your BOM?

Nolan Johnson checks in with Polar’s Martyn Gaudion on the evolving needs of global PCB manufacturing markets in a post-pandemic world, where generating accurate PCB specification documentation is essential to successfully navigating today's rampant supply chain constraints. Polar has positioned itself to meet these needs through agile software product developments that allow OEMs and fabricators to simulate material interactions and end-product specifications, including in-demand features like a comprehensive "structure view" that allows users to visualize all the transmission lines on a given a PCB. Though keeping pace with the demands of a rapidly growing industry has been challenging, Polar's commitment to innovation has kept its software suite ahead of the curve.
