Easy-PC PCB 16.0.9

Easy-PC PCB 16.0.9

Easy-PC PCB is a comprehensive, Windows-native PCB design suite that provides an integrated environment for the entire electronic design process. From drawing schematics and creating component libraries to routing multi-layer PCBs and generating manufacturing files, it offers a balanced set of features for designing professional boards. Known for its straightforward interface, excellent customer support, and competitive pricing, it is a popular alternative to more complex and expensive EDA tools.

⚡ Primary Users

Easy-PC PCB is a professional printed circuit board (PCB) design software designed for Electronics Design Engineers, PCB Layout Specialists, Hobbyists, Small to Medium-Sized Electronics Businesses, and Educational Institutions seeking a powerful yet affordable and user-friendly tool for schematic capture and PCB layout.

✨ Key Features & Capabilities

• Schematic Capture: Multi-sheet hierarchical schematic editor with electrical rule checking (ERC), bill of materials (BOM) generation, and netlist export.

• PCB Layout & Routing: Supports multi-layer boards (up to 32 layers) with manual, interactive, and shape-based auto-routing. Includes push-and-shove routing and track-length tuning.

• Component Library Management: Integrated library editor for creating and managing schematic symbols and PCB footprints, with a large library of pre-defined components.

• Design Rule Checking (DRC): Real-time and batch DRC to enforce clearance, width, and manufacturing rules.

• 3D Visualization & MCAD Export: Integrated 3D viewer to visualize the assembled PCB and export 3D models in STEP format for mechanical integration.

• Manufacturing Outputs: Generates industry-standard Gerber (RS-274X), Excellon drill, pick-and-place, and assembly drawings.

🆕 What’s New in Version 16.0.9

This update focuses on enhanced functionality, user experience improvements, and extended file support.
