World-beating value

Delivering performance in Schematic Capture and PCB Layout, normally associated with products at ten or even twenty times the price, Easy-PC rightly deserves the accolade "World-beating".

Professional software at an affordable price

Easy-PC has been created by a team of software professionals with some 150 man years experience in development of leading-edge Electronic Design Automation solutions. The team has rewritten the rule book for EDA tools designed for low to high complexity PCB layouts. Easy-PC is packed with timesaving features to make the task of PCB design and layout so much quicker and more pleasurable.

Simple to learn and understand, yet packed with powerful features

Easy-PC was designed to be quite simple to learn so that you, the customer, are productive within a few hours of practice with the product. Frequently, new customers report they are producing their first board within a few days - or even hours - of installing the software - it really is that simple and intuitive!

Connective Data Structure

With a truly connective data structure, Easy-PC is electrically correct at all times. Electrical integrity is maintained throughout the design process, from Schematic to PCB design editors, your design is always in-sync. Forward and backward annotation ensures there are no human errors introduced at any stage.

Libraries

Easy-PC is provided with component libraries and symbols plus graphical tools to create them, but when time is a factor, you can also purchase ready-made libraries from Number One Systems. Four libraries are available:

Microcontroller library - Over 2,000 popular micro controller components.

Pro-library - Over 29,000 popular components with associated Schematic symbols and PCB footprints.

Connector Library - Over 22,000 popular connector components with associated Schematic symbols and PCB footprints.

IPC SM library - Over 1,250 components and PCB footprints created to the IPC Council's SM standard.

Gerber Import

Two levels of Gerber import are available: Intelligent Gerber Import to rebuild your designs from Gerber files and a Gerber viewer for simply reading and viewing Gerber files before manufacture. More details...

Auto Routers

Two levels of auto-router are available for Easy-PC; Easy-Router is supplied as an entry-level auto-router with Easy-PC and will handle basic designs. The Pro-Router is a sophisticated, high performance router which will handle dense, multi-layer fine line designs. More details...

IDF Export

For mechanical CAD (MCAD) packages which don't import the DXF format (Pro-Engineer or SolidWorks for example), export your design in IDF format. More details...

GenCAD Export

For mechanical CAD (MCAD) packages or manufacturing front-end software, export your design in GenCAD format. More details...

Specctra Router Export

If you already own the Specctra auto-router, interface to it using the DSN Export and Import Interface. Export your design in DSN format and run Specctra, route it and return the routed results in SES format back into Easy-PC. This interface is integrated and seamless, making life easier for you and allowing you to make best use of your existing investment.
