PCB Layout in Cad
Mick
Is there any programs, add-in's or whatever for Autocad for PCB design.
If not what is a recommended program for this type of work?
Thanks
Mick

I believe these results are not truly indicative of what they have in the
area of Printed Circuit Board Layout. I saw a different Autodesk Program,
called HC something, then I found HCB, and it was the wrong program. What I
did find was a PCB layout tool. But when I tried to find it again, I
failed. Just like I'm failing you now. But I think Autodesk could be of
better help, here. All the tools it found had nothing to do with Printed
Circuit Board layout! Seeking companion products didn't help out, either.
Just about everything in PCB design is quite spendy. Allegro PCB is $10K
and they say that is "entry level". It goes up to about $49k.

There is a book on doing this that came out about a year ago. Don't
remmeber the author or title, but a search at Amazon.com should come up
with it quickly enough. I think the book comes with some utilities to
convert .dxf to Gerber & such.
