OrCAD (All Products) is a suite of integrated design solutions for electrical engineers. It is used to create and simulate printed circuit boards (PCBs), schematic designs, and electronic components. The suite is comprised of different applications, including OrCAD Capture, OrCAD Layout, OrCAD PSpice, and OrCAD PCB Designer. OrCAD Capture helps users create, organize, and maintain electrical schematics. It supports automated designs, including hierarchical design, multi-channeling, and design reuse. It also allows users to simulate and analyze their designs. OrCAD Layout is an integrated layout package that provides users with tools to create and optimize their PCBs. It includes features such as schematic-driven layout, automated trace routing, and electrical rule checking. It also supports advanced design features such as 3D visualization and thermal analysis. OrCAD PSpice is a simulation and analysis software that enables users to model, simulate, and optimize the performance of their circuits. It supports mixed-mode and analog simulations with time-domain, frequency domain, and transient analysis. OrCAD PCB Designer is an integrated design solution for designing and routing PCBs. It includes features such as autorouting, advanced constraint management, and a powerful design rule checker. It also supports advanced design features such as 3D visualization and thermal analysis.
Discontinued The program seems to be no longer updated. The latest version, 0.9.3b, released in June 2016, can still be downloaded from the official website.
