Why not to use an MCS30: Hardware is proprietary, OS-9 format, expensive to fix or replace, support, slow, RS-232 or ethernet hookup for CAD download, flat file format. F4G: PC is purchased by you, WindowsNT 4.0, inexpensive to fix or replace, supp

Hi, Everyone! What do you use for Assembly Drawings? I need Electronics Assembly Drafting software, and I am hoping to hear your recommendations. The core functionality I need is the ability to translate X/Y coordinates (ASCII file) to my Gerbers

Thank you for the customer's perspective, Alien. We actually send a short "wish-list" to our customers and includes such necessities as: 1. BOM. Must be Rev-controlled and contain, at minimum, a useable part numbering scheme, adequate description fi

What do you want to do with the gerber file? Most gerber outputted data is in ascii and can be read with notepad or any text editor. If you want to view the gerber data there are free viewers on the web ie: gerbv.sourceforge.net Hope this helps.

Hi There are a couple of options that you have: 1) have you tried to open the file using note pad, is it an ascii text format? 2)if it is a ascii file then you can edit the file by just leaving the centroid information. 3)OR call Fuji America at 847.

I have some files from the 1980's that I need to convert to Gerber. Some contain ASCII and some don't. There is a reference to Personal CAD Systems, Inc., PC-CAPS and PC-CARDS. Can anyone convert this or tell me if software is available to do it?

Try PCBSynergy, it has several versions of Mydata SMT formats in its list of output formats. So take your CAD file and select the nearest Mydata format for your machine and alter the Origin calculator section for the layout of panels that you need. S

Vicki, Ask your CAD guys to give you the centroid X-Y data with reference designators in ASCII format. Then import that file into Excel. You can then change the fields and data into the format you need. Make sure you left justify the columns. Af
