CR-8000 Overview: System-Level PCB Engineering from Concept to Manufacture

CR-8000 is a comprehensive PCB design suite that enables the development of a multi-board system from concept to manufacturing. CR-8000’s fully integrated design flow ranges from initial system planning, where critical design decisions aremade about design partitioning, component selection, form, fit and function of the product or system; through detailed schematic and 2/3D single and multi-board PCB design; to optimized manufacturing output.

The CR-8000 suite comprises four main modules that can be combined in an end-to-end environment, or used as standalone toolsets.

• System Planner: a system-level design environment for up-front planning and partitioning of electronics systems.
• Design Gateway: an engineering platform for logical circuit design and verification of single and multi-board system-level electronic designs.
• Design Force: a system-level PCB design and analysis toolset combining conventional 2D design with 3D design in real-time.
• DFM Center: a comprehensive manufacturing preparation and output solution supporting panelization and common output formats.
