New online tool enables seamless path from design through simulation and layout, all the way to manufacturing
Arrow Electronics, Inc. (NYSE: ARW) and Cadence Design Systems, Inc.
(NASDAQ: CDNS) have expanded their ongoing collaboration, launching the
Cadence® OrCAD® Entrepreneur package for OrCAD
Capture Cloud on the Arrow.com
design center. The new software tool suite cuts in half the time
that it takes a designer to move from design to prototype, when compared
to the traditional process of manually designing and simulating across
separate systems.
“Thousands of design engineers already use OrCAD Capture Cloud on
Arrow.com,” said Arrow Chief Digital Officer Matt Anderson. “OrCAD
Entrepreneur goes even further, helping engineers bring their design
ideas to life more quickly and easily than ever before. Arrow looks
forward to continuing our successful collaboration with Cadence, and to
bringing cutting-edge online design tools like OrCAD Entrepreneur to the
engineers who rely on our digital platform.”
Designers use OrCAD Entrepreneur to capture their system-level design in
the familiar OrCAD Capture Cloud design environment, which is accessible
directly from Arrow.com. They can then download the design onto their
desktop for simulation and layout—moving seamlessly from design through
advanced circuit simulation and PCB layout, and all the way to
manufacturing.
From within the cloud-enabled design environment, designers can also
select from existing Arrow reference designs, pick components from the
existing Arrow parts library and generate a complete bill of materials,
all in one seamless flow. Designers can also print, share and upload new
designs.
“We are pleased to achieve this latest milestone in our ongoing
collaboration with Arrow,” said Tom Beckley, senior vice president and
general manager, Custom IC & PCB Group at Cadence. “By more tightly
coupling OrCAD Capture Cloud with Arrow’s extensive online resources and
further streamlining the PCB design flow, OrCAD Entrepreneur advances
Cadence’s System Design Enablement strategy and helps engineers bring
differentiated products to market more efficiently.”
