TopSPICE
With the Top Spice module you can verify and optimize your design from the system to the transistor level. The TopSPICE simulation engine includes a native mixed-mode, mixed-signal simulator for circuits with any combination of analog and digital functions.
| • |
Allows you to simulate schematics exactly with information that can be passed direct into PCB layout |
| • |
Allows you to run any number of tests Allows you to work within a single design environment |
| • |
Allows you to manually create SPICE arguments and create models or sub-circuits directly |
| • |
Allows you to simulate digital sections of your circuit instead of analog equivalents using the built-in logic simulator, reducing mixed-mode simulation times significantly |
| • |
Provides fast access to the simulation parameters for each component using the Parts Properties Editor, allowing small changes and ‘what if’ tuning to be carried out quickly and easily. |
B2 Spice Professional CS
CADSTAR Schematics can be verified and optimized with B2 Spice Professional simulation prior to the physical prototype. You can simply select "Connect to CADSTAR" from the B2 Spice File menu to simulate the circuit that you are working on. The CADSTAR library will (once mapped) retain the component association of B2Spice.

Real-time parameter modifications Cross probing, 25,000 device library. |
Micro-Strip Routing Tool
iMStrip
This third party* product is a specialist routing interface tool that handles micro-strip routing for RF designs within the CADSTAR environment.
Simulate and create high-frequency conductor geometries in RF PCBs, to save time and increase quality.
Perform simulation and verification checks in only minutes.
3D Modeling tool interfacing with BoardModeller Lite
MCAD
3D MCAD interfaces are designed to plug into CADSTAR to deliver additional functionality, which can be easily accessed from the CADSTAR interface.
IDF
The bi-directional IDF (Intermediate Data Format) interface to CADSTAR enables the physical aspects of CADSTAR designs to be transferred to a 3D mechanical design system for checking and modification. After modification you can then import the design back into CADSTAR.
AutoCAD
The AutoCAD to CADSTAR interface from Latimer CAD offers you:
| • |
A unique "real-time" file-free integration with CADSTAR |
| • |
Import and export IDF format files within AutoCAD |
| • |
Add components |
| • |
Component move, rotate and mirror |
| • |
Add drilled (mounting) holes |
| • |
List components |
| • |
Component library |
| • |
Create component (model) |
MRP-Link
MRP-link
The third party* product MRP (Materials Requirement Planning) Link integrates CADSTAR tools with MRP SQL databases and establishes a bi-directional connection, providing users with access to a vast amount of additional component information for harmonization of part data in electronic designs and for the creation of highly customizable bills of materials (BOMs).
