Interactive Reference Designs are Now Available from Trinamic on Ultra Librarian
February 23, 2021 | Ultra LibrarianEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Ultra Librarian®, the world's largest free cloud-based CAD library provider, has announced its partnership with Trinamic and Cadence to provide intelligent reference designs for download from Ultra Librarian. “These top reference designs from Trinamic in Cadence formats with CAD models from Ultra Librarian help design engineers jumpstart the design process,” said Manny Marcano, president and CEO of EMA. “This eliminates the tremendous number of hours typically spent recreating a design from a pdf and sourcing relevant parts.”
Reference designs are a valuable design tool for engineers to accelerate the design process and bring ideas to life faster. Instead of working from a pdf, engineers can download native CAD files in Cadence systems formats from Trinamic. There is no need to spend the time recreating a design from a pdf and sourcing relevant parts. With intelligent reference designs available in Ultra Librarian, designs can be downloaded along with all associated CAD models.
These designs have been built, tested, and authorized by the manufacturers and verified by Ultra Librarian to ensure accuracy of the design and associated models. Each download comes with a complete Bill of Materials ready for purchasing.
“Especially when it comes to designing applications, time is a precious resource as being first to market can make all the difference,” said Jonas P. Proeger, Director, Business Management at Trinamic Motion Control, now part of Maxim Integrated. “The performance of motor control applications depends on a good routing and component choice. With the offering of design files covering Trinamic's most popular evaluation boards, engineers can save precious resources and reduce time to market without compromising on quality.”

Connect the Dots: Designing for Reality—The Pre-Manufacturing Process
05/08/2024 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsI have been working with Nolan Johnson on a podcast series about designing PCBs for the reality of manufacturing. By sharing lessons learned over a long career in the PCB industry, we hope to shorten learning curves and help designers produce better boards with less hassle and rework. Episode 2 deals with the electronic pre-manufacturing process. Moving from CAD (computer-aided design) to CAM (computer-aided manufacturing) is a key step in PCB manufacturing. CAM turns digital designs into instructions that machines can use to actually build the PCB.

Happy’s Tech Talk #28: The Power Mesh Architecture for PCBs
05/07/2024 | Happy Holden -- Column: Happy’s Tech TalkA significant decrease in HDI substrate production cost can be achieved by reducing the number of substrate layers from conventional through-hole multilayers and microvia multilayers of eight, 10, 12 (and more), down to four. Besides reducing direct processing steps, yield will increase as defect producing operations are eliminated.
