Cadence Allegro平台16.0即将发布

What's New in Cadence Allegro 16.0 PlatformDiscover how the Cadence? Allegro? platform improves design efficiency and designer productivity by dramatically shortening the learning curve in the adoption of new solutions and enhancing ease-of-use.

The Allegro platform is the leading physical and electrical constraint-driven PCB layout and interconnect system. Now, it has been updated to include a new methodology for physical and spacing constraints using the Allegro constraint management system, a common cockpit throughout the entire design flow. Other updates include support for algorithmic modeling and package parasitic, improved circuit simulation and statistical analysis, seamless scalability with OrCAD products, enhanced collaboration, and a new user interface for improved productivity and usability.

Cadence设计系统公司日前发布了Cadence Allegro系统互连设计平台针对印刷电路板（PCB）设计进行的全新产品和技术增强。改进后的平台为约束驱动设计提供了重要的新功能，向IC、封装和板级设计领域的设计团队提供新技术和增强以提升易用性、生产率和协作能力，从而为PCB设计工程师树立了全新典范。

工程团队在设计和管理当今复杂的电子设计全系统互连时，面临前所未有的挑战。随着PCB平均面积的减小，器件管脚数、设计频率和设计约束复杂度却不断提升。这种持续的挑战使得传统PCB设计方法变得越来越力不从心。基于Cadence在PCB领域的领先地位，新的Allegro平台提供了能够适应和解决这些不断增加的复杂度难题的流程和方法学，从而树立了全新PCB设计典范。

Cadence Allegro平台是基于物理和电气约束驱动的领先PCB版图和互连系统。它经过升级，现在已包含了针对物理和空间约束的最先进的布线技术和全新方法学。它使用了Cadence 约束管理系统，那是在整个PCB流程中提供约束管理的通用控制台。其他升级包括支持先进串行连接设计的算法建模、改进的电路仿真、同Cadence OrCAD? 产品的无缝扩展性、增强的协同性、及新的用户界面，从而可以提高生产力和可用性。该版本Allegro平台还为信号完整性（SI）和电源完整性（PI）提供了重大的新功能。

“这是近年来最重要的PCB发布，我们一直在协助客户满足他们的需求，以便他们解决最具挑战性的设计问题，”Cadence负责产品营销的全球副总裁Charlie Giorgetti表示，“我们为客户开发并提供创新的能力，显见我们对PCB市场的承诺。”

Allegro PCB PI选项可吸收来自IC及IC封装设计工具的封装寄生现象、裸片电容和转换电流，以精确建立完整的电源供应系统。结合静态IR降分析，Allegro PCB PI用户可以快速判断电源分配系统是否能维持规范所述参考电压。

发布情况

Allegro PCB设计L、XL及GXL平台版本计划于2007年6月发布。PCB West上演示的全局布线环境(Global Route Environment)包含在Allegro PCB Design GXL产品中。

good

应该是6月15日发布，不知道什么时间才能有破解得出来，希望破解高手抓紧行动起来了！

我已经等了很久了，盼望早日用上！

还是捧一下场吧。希望美国佬不要太吝啬

顶一下

16.0可是个值得期待的版本啊,是偶数版本哟,这两年发布的是15.5 ,15.51,15.7,都是奇数版本,

最好能把linux安装版也搞来,

有什么大的改进?

这么快啊,呵呵,不错哦

hao

15.7的破解都没有完全攻克，很不稳定。
我估计16.0对于我们这些D版的爱好者，只能是望梅止渴了。

期待早日面市啊！

期待中、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、、

 大家看一下16.0版本,是不是非常"艳".

关注中.......
