Pulsonix - Schematic PCB Design

Pulsonix - Schematic PCB Design

A totally integrated Schematic and PCB design editor.

"Schematic Capture is supplied with every Pulsonix PCB design suite as an integrated editor. It is also available as a separate standalone product for engineering environments.

When used as a standalone product, not only can you add the Pulsonix Spice simulator but you can also export netlists in industry standard formats."

Pulsonix FPGA Integration

Pulsonix FPGA Integration

FPGA pin assignment data generated by manufacturers' tools can be imported into a part in the Pulsonix library. From there, it can be included with the part into the schematic and propagated forwards to the PCB layout. You can also start from within the Pulsonix Part editor and export the Part pin data to a CSV format file for use with the FPGA tool.
