Current IssueSignal Integrity
If you don’t have signal integrity problems now, you will eventually. This month, our expert contributors share a variety of SI techniques that can help designers avoid ground bounce, crosstalk, parasitic issues, and much more.
Proper Floor Planning
Floor planning decisions can make or break performance, manufacturability, and timelines. This month’s contributors weigh in with their best practices for proper floor planning and specific strategies to get it right.
Showing Some Constraint
A strong design constraint strategy carefully balances a wide range of electrical and manufacturing trade-offs. This month, we explore the key requirements, common challenges, and best practices behind building an effective constraint strategy.

CADbro 2021 Released for Better Collaboration on 3D Models
September 23, 2020 | Business WireEstimated reading time: 1 minute

ZWSOFT released CADbro 2021, an easy-to-use 3D CAD viewer for whoever needs to collaborate on engineering data, especially salespeople, technicians, quality controllers, designers, etc.
Import More Information in Less Time
Thanks to the upgraded translator of CADbro, users can import more versions of files, such as CATIA® V5-6R2020, Creo® 6.0, Inventor® V2020, and NX® 1899, and access their part attributes, for example, material.
Besides, the Quick Import command loads the display data and the geometric data for measuring or basic editing in a shorter time.
Modify and Collaborate on 3D Models Easily
When modifying the 3D model in the desktop app, users can easily find the command needed with the new Command Search function.
Plus, Datum CYSY and axes that facilitate the measurement of objects can be created. Datum axes are especially useful when the axis of a particular model is not in line with any default coordinate indicator.
To ensure a safe and reasonable assembly design, users can check the minimum distance between components with the new Clearance Check function.
Users can also predefine the explode steps of the model and upload them together to the cloud. Afterwards, the exploded view can be examined according to the pre-defined steps on the web.
Share Smaller Files via QR Code
To make file sharing even easier and file opening even faster, users can now generate a QR code for the model file. Also, the size of .Z3DS files shrinks without any loss of quality.
Testimonial
"Our marketing partnership with I-Connect007 is already delivering. Just a day after our press release went live, we received a direct inquiry about our updated products!"
