A senior design engineer has just given me a usb stick with protel pcb layout software on it.
What is it?
Is it that DOS based PCB layout package?
I have been told its a version before ver 3.5.2.
Is this PCB package any good?
Some time ago, this engineer said to me that they had seen altium being used once, and then when 'convert to PCB' was clicked, the PCB came up with the components linked by the rat's nest...and this senior engineer complained to me that the rat's nest was 'weird'.........i didnt understand...the rats nest is a great help, surely?
A printed circuit board design program for Microsoft Windows. FreePCB allows for up to 16 copper layers, both metric and US customary units, and export of designs in Gerber format. Boards can be partially or fully autorouted with the FreeRouting autorouter by using the FpcROUTE Specctra DSN design file translator. Fritzing: Windows, Mac, Linux. The program can design PCB layout manually, Auto-Route according the electronic circuit schematic that you design, design a Multi-layer PCB (consisting of several layers), and many more. You may want to check out more software, such as Protel 98 Service Pack 3, Protel PCB or PCB Artist, which might be to Protel Advanced PCB.

I have been told that if i have anything later than WinXP, then i'd better run the program in 'compatibility mode' (Win95), otherwise it might not be reliable.Is this PCB package any good?
