Recently, I used the pads (formerly power PCB) software. There are many differences in the use of the alicloud designer in peacetime. All of them said that pads is the king of low-end PCB production (the mentor and Allegro of high-end products have never been played), and I cannot see it all at once. In the protels era, it is true that the powerful interactive cabling function of Power PCB is incomparable to that of PROTEL. However, with the upgrade of alicloud products, the gap between alicloud designer and pads is gradually decreasing, however, in terms of details, pads is superior to AD, and ad is far ahead of pads on the operation interface. I feel that the pads operation interface has a little dos style, the problem with the ad interface is that the memory consumption is large. The following list compares the two software. The version of AD is AD6, and the version of pads is pads2007.
The memory comparison of pads is recorded when it is empty. The pads software consists of three parts: pads logic, pads layout, and pads router. Among them, the idle memory of the router reaches 60 MB. Er, I cannot believe it. Maybe it is more powerful. In short, the application of the general low-density board should be able to meet the requirements of the two software, for the high-density board is more inclined to pads, its rule settings for AD is more detailed, the rule is strong, and the mode without model is fast and powerful. Which software does it use to look at their hobbies ~....
