OrCAD
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
OrCAD is a software tool suite used primarily for electronic design automation. The software is used mainly to create electronic prints for manufacturing of printed circuit boards, by electronic design engineers and electronic technicians to manufacture electronic schematics and diagrams, and for their simulation.
The name OrCAD is a portmanteau, reflecting the software's origins: Oregon + CAD.
The OrCAD product line is fully owned by Cadence Design Systems. The latest iteration has the ability to maintain a database of available integrated circuits. This database may be updated by the user by downloading packages from component manufacturers, such as Texas Instruments.
