Description

Trace is an innovative PCB design platform tailored for hardware teams, guiding them from initial concept to a fully manufactured board. It integrates advanced schematic capture and PCB layout tools with smart agents that comprehend the context of hardware design. Users can articulate their project requirements in natural language, enabling Trace to conduct thorough research, produce complex multi-sheet schematics, interpret datasheets, recommend components, verify their availability in real time, arrange parts, route multi-layer boards, optimize matched-length signals, and perform essential checks like ERC and DRC along with design reviews. With a comprehensive library boasting over 30,000 symbols and footprints, the platform sources data from leading electronic distributors. Additionally, Plan Mode delves into intricate tasks, poses clarifying questions, devises a detailed action plan, and initiates execution only after receiving user approval.
