Problems
mating and un-mating glass slides when designing LCDs?
Liquid Crystal automates the design of LCD type layouts. PCB/AutoCAD is
an ideal place to design LCDs since any shape geometry is supported
with full net capture and design rule checking capabilities. Parts
can be created easily and quickly with parametrically based
commands. Routing enhancements make possible the tuning of multiple
nets for matched resistance.
Several commands allow a designer to
open the two glass sections in preparation for CAM panelization and
close them for designing and editing the layout. Areas common to the
conductors on both pieces of glass can be highlighted in the
software to show how the LCD illuminates. Full support for GDSII in
and out is provided.
Key
Features Include:
-
Automatically
generates of all border features and fiducials from parametric
dialog box.
-
Automatically
generates LCD character arrays by setting parameters
-
Support
is provided for any
shape boundary nets that can define complex characters in any
language
-
Support
is provided for placement of dies on either glass plate
-
Automatically
creates mated
and unmated views of the glass for design and fabrication
-
The
software highlights the intersection of the top and the bottom conductors to show
where illumination appears.
