with PSpice
DatasheetPowerful schematic entry, professional level simulation and analysis in one affordable package
In today’s engineering design environment, electrical engineers are asked to perform a variety of challenges in a fraction of the time. Along with schematic entry, circuit simulation is becoming an integral part of the schematic design process. Recognizing this need, Cadence® has created the Cadence OrCAD® EE Designer suite—a highly integrated front-end design solution with Cadence OrCAD Capture and Cadence PSpice® AD in a single package.
To stay competitive in today’s market, companies must get their designs from engineering through manufacturing with shorter design cycles. To increase their productivity, engineers need a set of powerful, intuitive, and integrated technologies that work seamlessly across the entire design flow. OrCAD PCB design suites including PSpice technology have a long history of addressing these demands.
Advanced Simulation Technology
OrCAD PCB Designer with PSpice includeds the defacto industry standard PSpice A/D giving full-featured analog simulator with support for digital elements to help solve virtually any design challenge—from high-frequency systems to low-power IC designs. The powerful simulation engine is fully integrated with OrCAD Capture schematic entry tool, improving time to market and keeping operating costs in check. An interactive, easy-to-use graphical user interface provides complete control over the design process. Availability of resources such as models from many vendors, built-in mathematical functions, and behavioral modeling techniques make for an efficient design process.
