![]() ![]() How is your general opinion on either classical PADS or PADS Professional? According to our engineers and some google research classical PADS is rather old and clunky and has some weird quirks (which PCB tool doesn't? ). PADS Professional seems to be the new tool which Mentor will focus on. According to our sales representative, classical PADS and PADS Professional are basically two different systems. I'm already in contact with our local sales representative, but I'm looking for some first hand opinions There seem to exist two variants of PADS: One being "Classical" PADS, now called "PADS Standard (Plus)", and the other one being "PADS Professional". Since some of our engineers already have had experience with it, we are having a closer look into Mentor PADS (other alternatives are Altium and Pulsonix). 2D shapes, differential pair design, Design rule check, netlist generator, DFM check. Hi there, for our small PCB design team (4-5 engineers plus maybe 1-2 students temporarily) we are planning to change to a new PCB tool (moving away from EAGLE 7.X). PADS is powerful software & has features of auto-routing, copper pouring. ![]()
