SuperPCB is a printed circuit board design package which can be
used to design single, double, or multiple-layer circuit boards. Current
version: V7.0 (32-bit).
- Visually cued command entry all commands are visible from pull down
menus, dialog boxes, or toolbar buttons, using a state-of-the art, modern
21st Century graphical interface (Microsoft Windows!)
- Library support a large library of DIP, PGA, BGA, surface mount, and
discrete package parts is immediately available; in addition, the user can
easily make create library parts using the library part editor and library
part wizard
- Easy to use object entry commands these allow the entry of traces,
pads, rectangles, ellipses, text, and other objects
- Easy to use graphics edit commands these include copy, move,
rotate, stretch, erase; both single-object and grouped-object edits are
allowed
- Advanced editing features these include rubberbanding of moved
parts, snap modes (grid and pad), auto-incremented text, constrained
drawing, rotation to one degree precision, and others
- Built-in autorouter SuperPCB allows incremental autorouting (single
point-to-point routing) and batch autorouting on one to 16 layers and
multiple grid sizes
- Multiple circuit layers SuperPCB allows up to 16 layers plus two
silk screen layers, solder mask layers, paste layers, power layers
- Large boards/high resolution you can design boards up to 32"
by 32" and specify dimension downs to 1/10 mil; trace widths can be set
in a range from up to 255 mils
- Flexible output artwork can be generated in the
industry-standard Gerber file format (RS274X)
with Excellon drill files; in addition artwork can be produced on any Windows
compatible printer
- Draw to fit and zoom operations regardless of board size, an entire
drawing page can be shrunk and displayed within the viewing window; any
portion of this display can be zoomed to normal size
- Built-in library part editor new parts can quickly
be designed using the library editor
- Advanced flood fill SuperPCB features a new flood
algorithm that allows selected regions to be filled with copper, with a
selected isolation offset from traces and pads
