CAD Design Software (CDS) provides customized EDA layout solutions to meet your unique technology needs and reduce your time to market. Rather than requiring customers to use work-arounds in off-the-shelf software, CDS customizes our tools to your specific design automation needs with high value, low cost of entry, and interoperability with other EDA layout tools. We produce customizable solutions for the following EDA markets:

Ceramic (Hybrid LTCC, MCM)

RF / Microwave (inc. phased array antenna)

IC Packaging (BGA, Stacked Die, SiP, PoP, Die Bump, high-speed intelligent Lead Frame)

IC Test (Probe Card, Space Transformer, Load (DUT) and Burn-in Boards)

Digital / Analog PCBs

Customization and custom development applications

Automated features include Routing, Schematic Capture, complete DRC (Design Rules Check), Gerber, CAM and more.

EPD (Electronics Packaging Designer) includes high-end intelligent graphics and direct links to third-party advanced simulation software to dramatically reduce time-to-market. Developed by designers for designers, EPD provides the most advanced, versatile, and customizable EDA tools available anywhere.

Current EPD (Electronics Packaging Designer) Version 7.6 is available in Windows and AutoCAD versions, and is also compatible with AutoCAD's Unicode-based 2007 and 2008. In addition, new features and some exciting new modules have been added, including our EPD-to-APD Cadence® interface, enhancements to our 3D tools, advanced LTCC functions, and High Speed Lead Frame technology!
