Description

OrCAD® X is a unified PCB design software platform. It offers significant improvements to ease of use, performance and automation. Our product suite includes applications for schematic, PCB layout, simulation and data management. OrCAD X Capture, a schematic design solution for electrical circuit creation and documentation, is one of OrCAD's most popular products. PSpice®, our virtual SPICE simulation engine integrated into Capture, allows you to prototype and verify your designs using industry-leading native analog, mixed signal, and advanced analysis engines. OrCAD X Presto and OrCAD X PCB editor are two PCB layout tools that allow designers to easily collaborate between ECAD/MCAD teams and build better PCBs faster. OrCAD X Presto is our new, simplified interface for novice designers, electrical engineers and PCB designers focused on quick turn PCB designs.

Description

The Solido variation-aware design solutions, alongside IP validation, library characterization, and simulation technologies driven by cutting-edge AI, are utilized by thousands of designers at leading semiconductor firms across the globe. This integrated suite features AI-enhanced SPICE, Fast SPICE, and mixed-signal simulators that empower clients to significantly expedite crucial design and verification processes for advanced analog, mixed-signal, and custom IC designs. It delivers the industry's quickest and most thorough integrated IP validation solution, ensuring complete and seamless IP quality assurance from the design phase all the way to tape-out, encompassing all design perspectives and IP updates. Moreover, this comprehensive AI-driven design environment facilitates both nominal and variation-aware verification of custom IC circuits, achieving full design coverage with far fewer simulations while maintaining the accuracy comparable to brute-force methods. Furthermore, it offers rapid and precise library characterization tools that leverage machine learning for enhanced performance and reliability.

Pricing Details

$107 USD/month
OrCAD X is offered in both term and perpetual licensing. Term licensing is based on a 12 month period and reduces the upfront product cost while providing access to all services. It includes support, software updates, and OrCAD X Cloud subscription. Perpetual licensing has a higher upfront cost, but allows indefinite use of the purchased version. It includes the first year of maintenance which covers support, software updates, and OrCAD X Cloud subscription. Unlike a term license maintenance must be maintained to provide continual access to support, software updates, and access to new product versions.
