Before we understand the special software for electrical engineering, we must first understand some technology and industry application classifications related to electronic engineering.
The application form of electronic engineering covers electric equipment and various electric switches that use control technology, measurement technology, adjustment technology, computer technology, and information technology. The main research fields of electronic engineering are circuits and systems, communications, electromagnetic fields and microwave technology, and digital signal processing.
Electronic engineering-related jobs are generally divided into hardware engineers and software engineers. The electronic engineer is a general term for the technical personnel engaged in the production and research and development of integrated circuits, electronic and electrical equipment and other related products.
Hardware and software are inseparable, and hardware needs software to execute its programs to achieve specific functions. Software needs hardware as a carrier, and there is a complementary relationship between them.
Altium Designer is an integrated electronic product development system software. This software provides designers with brand-new design solutions through the perfect integration of schematic design, circuit simulation, PCB drawing and editing, topology logic automatic routing, signal integrity analysis and design output. The designer is proficient in using this software, which can greatly improve the quality and efficiency of circuit design.
At present, the market positioning of this software is mainly low-end product design, usually with 2 layers and 4 layers.
The predecessor of PADS is POWER PCB, which is relatively easy to use and has a very high market share in consumer electronics products. For example, from the early VCD, DVD, MP3, MP4, U disk, LCD TV, to the current tablet computer, driving recorder, car electronics, navigator, digital set-top box, this software has occupied a huge market share.
Cadence Allegro is an advanced PCB design and routing tool introduced by Cadence. Allegro provides a good interactive interface and powerful and complete functions, combined with its front-end product Capture, to provide the most perfect solution for the current high-speed, high-density, multi-layer complex PCB design and wiring.
Cadence allegro is not easy to use. It is generally only used by large companies, especially for companies that make computer motherboards. Because this software is powerful, it has advantages in drawing large boards. Its market is currently mainly on computer motherboards, large industrial control boards, server motherboards, and other large boards.
Some people may say that this is an ordinary 3D software, how can it be used in the field of electronic engineering? Let me briefly introduce the entire manufacturing process: The analysis engineer analyzes the customer's documents (usually PCB data) with Tebo software, and then designs the JIG structure for the structural engineer. JIG is a tool for PCB (Printed Circuit Board) testing. This is a downstream industry of PCB manufacturing, but this software plays an indispensable role in ensuring the quality of the PCB factory.
Matlab is also a software worth contacting. Matlab is very useful in analyzing data, developing algorithms, and creating models.6. LabVIEW
LabVIEW is a system engineering software designed for test, measurement, and control applications. It can quickly access hardware and data information.
Keil provides a complete development program including C compiler, macro assembly, linker, library management and a powerful simulation debugger, etc., which are combined through an integrated development loop (μVision).
Visual c++ is an integrated development environment (IDE). It has tools for developing and debugging C++ code.
Multisim is a Windows-based simulation tool launched by National Instruments (NI) Co., Ltd. It is suitable for board-level analog/digital circuit board design. It includes graphical input of circuit schematics, circuit hardware description language input, and has rich simulation analysis capabilities.
Engineers can use Multisim to interactively build circuit schematics and simulate the circuit. Multisim refines the complex content of SPICE simulation so that engineers can quickly capture, simulate and analyze new designs without knowing in-depth SPICE technology, which also makes it more suitable for electronics education. Through Multisim and virtual instrument technology, PCB design engineers and electronics educators can complete a design process from theory to schematic capture and simulation to prototype design and testing.
TestStand is also a software platform independently developed and researched by National Instruments (NI).
TestStand is a test management software that can be executed immediately. It can help users develop automated test and verification systems faster. NI TestStand can be used to develop, execute, and deploy test system software. In addition, users can also develop test sequences using test code modules written in any programming language. The test sequence can specify the execution flow, generate test reports, perform database records, and connect to other company systems. Finally, users can deploy the test system in production with the help of an easy-to-use operation interface.
Switch Executive is a switch management and routing application software that can quickly accelerate the development process and simplify the maintenance of complex switch systems. Switch Executive provides interactive configuration and automatic routing functions to make the design of the switch routing system easier.
Proteus software is an EDA tool software published by Lab Center Electronics, UK. The design kit combines easy-to-use and powerful feature sets to achieve rapid design, testing and layout of professional PCBs.
Electronic Workbench is an electronic circuit simulation software that can perform various circuit work demonstrations, simulate various electronic circuits, and scale the displayed waveforms. ElectronicWorkbench is a classic, compact, easy-to-use analog and digital circuit simulation software.
LTspiceIV is a high-performance Spice III simulator, circuit diagram capture and waveform observer, and provides improvements and models for simplifying the simulation of switching regulators. In the circuit diagram simulation process, its built-in model often cannot meet the demand, and large chip suppliers will provide free SPICE models or PSpice models for download. LTspice can import these models into LTSPICE for simulation.
OrCAD is a professional PCB design, circuit board layout and routing tool that can help produce manufacturable circuit board designs faster. Cadence OrCAD products are deeply loved by electronic engineers for its intuitive operation interface and powerful functions. It is the most widely used EDA software in the world.
Since the establishment of the company, JRPanel is committed to building a diversified one-stop industrial customization platform.
