What is Quilter?

Engineers from prominent electronics companies worldwide turn to Quilter for their design solutions. Seamlessly integrating with existing designs and libraries, Quilter guarantees that all finished projects are provided in the original file format, facilitating easy review, adjustments, and export. To get started, you simply create your schematic using your chosen ECAD tool, such as Altium or KiCAD, and upload your schematic alongside an empty board file. Quilter adeptly recognizes the connections between components, allowing you to easily specify any design constraints for your board. We thoroughly check tolerances against leading fabrication houses to ensure dependability. Quilter analyzes multiple options and verifies that each design adheres to design rule checks (DRCs). After evaluating the choices, you can pick your preferred design and download the necessary files for production and testing. Unlike conventional auto routers, Quilter mimics the approach of a human designer, skillfully handling all aspects of PCB design, from trace routing and component placement to board stackup management and custom pour generation. This groundbreaking software significantly simplifies and enhances the design process, ultimately improving engineers' productivity and creativity. By leveraging Quilter's capabilities, engineers can focus on innovation while the software handles the intricacies of design.

What is DipTrace?

DipTrace is professional electronic design automation software for schematic capture and printed circuit board layout, developed by Novarm Ltd and in continuous development since 2004. More than 30,000 engineers in over 50 countries use it, including teams at companies working in aerospace, defense, medical device, automotive, and industrial electronics. For organizations evaluating EDA tools, the licensing model is the main structural difference from most alternatives. DipTrace is sold under a perpetual license: purchased once, owned permanently, with no subscription, no annual maintenance fee, and no loss of access when a term expires. Five editions range from $75 to $995 per seat depending on pin count and layer requirements, and volume, network, academic, and non-profit pricing is available. Technical support is included for every user at no extra cost, including those on the free edition. The software runs entirely offline on Windows, macOS, and Linux, with no cloud dependency and no design data leaving the workstation — a requirement for many defense and medical customers. Functionally, DipTrace covers the complete design flow in a single environment: hierarchical schematic capture with electrical rule check and SPICE simulation, board layout with interactive push-and-shove editing, shape-based autorouting, differential pair and length-matched high-speed routing, real-time design rule checking, 3D preview with STEP export, and manufacturing output in Gerber X2, ODB++, IPC-2581, and NC Drill. Version 5.3 introduced a native XML project format that works identically to the binary format, allowing designs to be managed in version control systems alongside firmware and mechanical files. Component sourcing integrates Mouser pricing data and SnapEDA libraries. Migration paths exist from Altium, KiCad, Eagle, OrCAD, EasyEDA Pro, Pulsonix, and PADS.
