Wow! You are right. I guess that depending on where you come from and what your value system is, anything is possible...?

There's a bunch of suppliers [Fabmaster, Unicam, GC-Place, CircuitCam] listed in the fine SMTnet Archives. You have to be a bit partial to CircuitCam, it's a ground-up product designed for our work by someone from the business, not some cobjob on a

Why not give it a bit of "Schmalz" (thinking), load it in a common spreadsheet-SW, write youself a macro to destill all the data you need and do whatever you want with it. You know, in some (many) cases it�s just like shooting with missiles at sparro

This is the same misinformation half-truth BS I have been hearing from CircuitCam for a long time. The truth is, Unicam has a product that automatically recognizes the Component and Ref designator, where CC requires the user to input each and every

My regards to everyone. I have to agree with previous message. I've written macro in excel to modify protel pik file to whatever form I need (and I need PCB file for MYDATA) Takes about 5-10min to come up with workable program. the only problem tha

Hi Alex, rotation is always the problem and that goes with all conversion-SW. Unless you have strict rules for your CAD regarding the rotation it will always be a mess and you have to look at nearly each part individually. Once you have an agreemen

rotation reset. That engineers actually do this just proves to me what a mischievious bunch of "little minxes" they really are. What I do is pick a package and >select>same pattern>same rotation. Go through 0,180,-90,90 and check for each pattern. Th

I did a search for "DFM" and most of the posts were from the previous century. Is there a tool that is not too expensive that will check a board layout based on DFM criteria? I don't think there could be a good one to give the number of parts and spa

I suppose it depends on your layout software. My weak recollection of what PowerPCB does is allow you to set up rules as far as spacing and where parts are placed, then you run the rule check, er something like that. As far as "Also what I"m thinkin
