Current IssueShowing 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.
All About That Route
Most designers favor manual routing, but today's interactive autorouters may be changing designers' minds by allowing users more direct control. In this issue, our expert contributors discuss a variety of manual and autorouting strategies.
Creating the Ideal Data Package
Why is it so difficult to create the ideal data package? Many of these simple errors can be alleviated by paying attention to detail—and knowing what issues to look out for. So, this month, our experts weigh in on the best practices for creating the ideal design data package for your design.

September 2, 2015 | PulsonixEstimated reading time: 1 minute
WestDev Ltd., the EDA company delivering technology-leading PCB design solutions, has named SouthCom Technologies the winner of its Distributor of the Year award.
SouthCom Technologies’ development and growth of Pulsonix in the North American market since their introduction in 2012 has brought a significant sales and service representation not previously seen for the product range.
“Since the appointment of SouthCom in North America three years ago, we have seen exponential growth in North America. Year-on-year sales have accelerated beyond our expectations as more and more engineers come into contact with Pulsonix,” said Marketing Director Bob Williams. “We attribute this to the hard effort from those both at SouthCom Technologies and at the Pulsonix development HQ in the United Kingdom. We are at a stage now where we have a synergistic process between SouthCom Technologies and those within Pulsonix, I believe this is truly benefiting our North American customers. They are seeing the true benefits of Pulsonix, and this is not just down to the software itself, it’s the people within the company. Together with SouthCom, we are bringing ourselves closer to the end user, listening to them and acting on their suggestions straight away.”
Jim Southward, founder and CEO of SouthCom Technologies, commented, “Sales have grown significantly for us in North America. Pulsonix fits well in the market with its very attractive price to performance ratio. Our working methodologies and practices along with extensive knowledge of the EDA market have enabled us to penetrate into North America with significant success. Our ethos of providing high quality solutions, be they products or services has been recognised with this award from WestDev.”

Beyond Design: Refining Design Constraints
07/17/2025 | Barry Olney -- Column: Beyond DesignBefore starting any project, it is crucial to develop a thorough plan that encompasses all essential requirements. This ensures that the final product not only aligns with the design concept but is also manufacturable, reliable, and meets performance expectations. High-speed PCB design requires us to not only push technological boundaries but also consider various factors related to higher frequencies, faster transition times, and increased bandwidths during the design process.
