The OrCAD® / Allegro® Starter Library 1.0 is a free library that includes OrCAD Capture schematic , Allegro Design Entry HDL and Allegro Design Entry CIS symbols along with OrCAD / Allegro PCB Editor footprints and the necessary component properties. It is designed for new customers who are evaluating or implementing a Cadence PCB flow or wanting to build a fully compatible library for use with the OrCAD / Allegro family of PCB design tools. A documented catalog of the OrCAD / Allegro Starter Library contents, as well as sample specifications used in the development of the library is available in Adobe .pdf format.

User interface Manual routing Family of products New and improved graphical user interface An all-new menu system that more closely follows the design process makes Layout easy to use. Whether you are a full-time board design specialist or an engineer who spends little time with PCB design tools, you can easily access the full power of Layout to quickly and efficiently get your job done. A single menu (the Options menu) manages all settings that are vital to the design Dialog boxes are redesigned to minimize the number of steps and menus needed to accomplish tasks. Abundant shortcut keys and right mouse pop-up menus provide quick access to common tasks.Manual routing improvements "Routing hints" are available, when you are manual routing, to tell the router the direction you want it to go when exiting pads, vias, and routed end segments. To select the options for this feature, choose Route Settings from the Options menu. You can now drag segments under DRC control to quickly position them where you want. Segments automatically change length as needed to maintain proper angles (90 degree, 135 degree). You can now perform "T-routing," which allows you to route from or to any segment, via, or pad of the net that you are currently routing. Dynamic Reconnect now displays a guideline to the nearest connection point when you are manually routing.New and improved features in all Layout family members You can now merge .MAX files and templates into another design. Merging .MAX files is most useful for placing components and merging the routing of a master board section into a design. Support for free vias. Free vias are user-defined vias that Layout will not optimize out of the design. You can use free vias to create single point grounds or to place decoupling capacitor vias exactly where you want them. Free Via Matrix tool. You can use the Free Via Matrix tool to place multiple free vias into a user-specified area, at a user-specified x-y distance from each other, with a single command. The vias are inserted only where they will fit within DRC rules. They are typically used to stitch planes together. You can also use the Free Via Matrix tool to place a row of vias around the periphery of a copper object, with a single command. Fanout support for BGA and micro-BGA packages. You can fanout BGA packages, using the 45 degree 'dogbone' technology, and you can fanout micro-BGA packages with 'via in pad' technology, adding automatic thermal connections to planes. New and improved translators. New SPECCTRA bi-directional translator for access to Cadence SPECCTRA place and route tools. New interface for PCB translators, to simplify legacy board translation. Improved support for IDF 2.0, a bi-directional 3D modeling interface that supports mechanical ECO from mechanical design systems. Improved support for GenCAD. New GerbTool improvements include Gerber-to-DXF or DXF-to-Gerber translations.General notesThis section gives you information concerning:

If you previously marked power pins as 'passive' to show visibility, it can cause Duplicate pin errors during AutoECO. This is because Capture now has visibility control for pins. You should remove all 'passive' markers on power pins and set the visibility to the same setting for all the power pins in a package. If you experience this problem, please check Orcad's web site, www.orcad.com, for answers to frequently asked questions and the latest software updates.

In v7.10 or later, planes are split by drawing one or more Copper Pours over the regions you wish to dedicate to specific nets. You can assign only one net (the dominant net) to the plane itself. Other nets are assigned to the Copper Pours. After assigning nets, you can route and place vias for them over any region of the board. For through-hole vias, Layout v7.10 or later takes care to create thermal reliefs only within the appropriate regions. If you have "Use Pours For Connectivity" turned on in User Preferences, Layout v7.10 and later updates ratnests automatically.

When loading pre-v7.10 designs to be routed with SmartRoute, you must first load them into Layout and then save them with a new name. That leaves you with both an older version for backup purposes and a current version of the design. Loading and saving updates the design database so that SmartRoute can work with a complete Layout Release 9 database.

. The full version is installed in the Broun Hall computer labs. Thesupported schematic entry tool is Capture. This replaces the older schematicentry tool called Schematics. For those who would still like to use Schematics,see the information below. Another excellent simulator using the SPICE engineis LTSpice, which is freely available from LinearTechnologies here:

The following downloads provide the latest web update software and the XML file for configuring a local update server. These updates correspond to the Self-contained updates in the section above and must be updated at the same time if you are using a local update server. Local update servers allow you to share updates on an internal server. End-user machines can be configured to connect to this server in order to check for and download the updates. For more information about this, please read the Altium Designer Summer 09 - Local Update Server Setup page.

Prior to installing license server updates, you must uninstall your existing Private License Server (or Floating License Server as it was previously known) by using Add and Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel. We recommend you backup any important information in the Altium Designer installation directory prior to uninstalling.

Prior to installing license server updates, you must uninstall your existing Floating License Server by using Add and Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel. We recommend you backup any important information in the Altium Designer installation directory prior to uninstalling.

The following updates can only be applied to an existing Altium Designer 6 installation. Updates are non-cumulative meaning that before any update can be installed, the version immediately prior to it has to already be installed (for example, 6.7 can't be installed unless 6.6 is already installed). Each downloads includes a setup program that is used to install the update.

I clicked "Yes" to launch Capture using lite license.I thought orcad capture will get well when license server recover.but it didn't.after that,capture enter lite version every time.I tried to fix this problem.

I have an isse with OrCAD capture license all of a sudden. I have been running version 16.5 (out-of-date revision for sure but can't recall which one I was on) for many months. In last 2-3 weeks I had some sudden crashes on the OrCAD Cature. Today, I am unable to start OrCAD. After a few mintes a window pops-up "OrCAD Capture License was not found. Would you like to launch Capture using lite license?" When I click on Yes, it does bring up the Capture. Furthermore, I am able to ping our server successfully. I have re-booted the PC but I still can't get OrCAD to start in its full mode. I am running it on Windows 7. Someone suggested uninstall and re-install of the software which feels like an overkill but sometimes that is what is necessary. Any suggestions from anyone? Thanks in advance. 2b1af7f3a8
