Board Layout

Choose from predefined and custom footprints to bring designs to life by creating a virtual board using real component specs.

Board Layout Features
  • Define the dimensions and properties of your board
  • Select components from a massive vender part library
  • Arrange footprints on front, back, or another layer of board
  • Verify your design using the built in thermal simulation engine

Embedded Board Planner

Embedded Board Planner

Embedded Board Planner makes sure that the components you want will fit on your board.


With a selected Product Family, users can choose to build an eval board, standard board, or a customized board. From there an editable visual board with component information is presented. Users are able to move components and redefine parameters to visualize how the board will look. Users will be able to see if components are too close to each other. Finally the board schematic can be viewed and printed along with a report of the results of the board layout.
