PCB Design

The Cadence® Allegro® system interconnect design platform enables collaborative design of high-performance interconnect across IC, package, and PCB domains. The platform's constraint-driven flow and co-design methodology optimizes system interconnect between I/O buffers and across ICs, packages, and PCBs, eliminating hardware re-spins, reducing costs and design cycles, and accelerating time to market.

PCB Design
As printed circuit boards grow in complexity, effective collaboration between design teams becomes paramount to your success. Based on the industry-leading Allegro PCB Editor, Allegro PCB Router, and Allegro Design Entry HDL products, Cadence offers two integrated, front-to-back design solutions that help you conquer today's difficult PCB design challenges. Our Allegro PCB Design L series is ideally suited to small- to medium-size teams that require an initial cost-conscious solution—with the flexibility to scale as technology challenges increase. The Allegro PCB Design XL series is a complete solution for advanced high-speed, constraint-driven PCB design. Allegro PCB Design XL features Allegro Constraint Manager, the only constraint management solution that allows you to manage electrical constraints concurrently across the design flow as one seamless process.

Allegro PCB Design L series—scalability and integration
The Allegro PCB Design L series provides a scalable range of solutions and options ideal for complex PCB design. Allegro PCB Design L provides an all-inclusive front-to-back design flow tailored to meet the needs of cost-conscious small- to medium-size design teams. The Allegro PCB Design L series provides a scalable design solution that grows with your design demands. It allows a team to move a design from inception to design capture, through component placement and routing, all the way to finished manufacturing output—at a price that breaks today's cost barriers.

Allegro PCB Design XL series—scalability and integration
The Allegro PCB Design XL series is the pinnacle of Cadence high-speed PCB design. This series offers high-speed, high-volume capabilities for complex PCB design. The Allegro PCB Design XL provides advanced, constraint-driven, high-speed PCB design for large design teams. Allegro PCB Design XL is a complete environment for implementing the latest PCB design challenges. It provides a fully integrated design flow, beginning with library management and spanning design entry through common electrical constraint management all the way to powerful auto-interactive PCB floorplanning and routing. Allegro PCB Design XL is the partner solution to Allegro PCB SIhigh-speed design and analysis, which provides solution space analysis, pre- and post-route interconnect analysis as well as constraint development and virtual prototyping.
