pcb-rnd
Modular Printed Circuit Board layout tool
pcb-rnd is a highly modular PCB (Printed Circuit Board) layout tool with a rich set of plugins for communicating with various external design tools and other EDA/CAD packages. Feature highlights: - subcircuits, pad stacks - flexible footprint model; unrestricted pad shapes - arbitrary copper, silk, paste and soldermask objects - sophisticated, flexible layer model - flexible/universal polygon model - any object, even polygons, can have a clearance within a polygon - advanced mil and mm grid, with support for mixed unit design - strong CLI support - static footprints and parametric (generated) footprints - query language for advanced search & select - layout optimizers such as teardrops and a trace puller - footprint library from local file systems, HTTP and board files - netlist management: imported and as-built; back annotation - design rule checker File formats and compatibility: - text based, tree structured native file format - gerber (export) - KiCad, s-expr format boards (read, write) - KiCad, s-expr format elements (write) - KiCad, legacy text format boards (write) - KiCad, eeschema netlist+footprint info (import) - tEDAx footprints (read, write) - tEDAx netlist (read) - Autotrax (protel) pcb boards (read, write) - Eagle XML format boards and libraries (read) - Eagle binary format boards and libraries (read) - Eagle DRU files (read) - Mentor Graphics Hyperlynx (read/write) - gEDA/PCB (read, write) - Specctra DSN (partial import/export, for freerouting.net) - flat EDIF netlist (import) - HPGL plot files (import) - openSCAD colored 3d model script (export) - ltspice netlist+footprint info (import) - Mentor Graphics Design Capture netlist+footprint info (import) - MUCS unixplot (partial import: lines, vias) - gEDA/gschem netlist+footprint info (import) - TinyCAD netlist+footprint info (import) - breadboard assembly drawing png (export) - BoM (Bill of Materials; export) - dxf, 2d drawings (export) - fidocadj board (export) - gcode (export) - nelma (export) - PNG, JPEG, GIF (export with photo-realistic render option) - postscript: ps, eps (export) - svg (export) - xy: template based, multi-format footprint/coord list (export)
