Import: PADS

PADS® is a PCB-CAD System from Mentor Graphics for designing Printed Circuit Boards (PCB).

Import: PADS feature allows to import design from PADS data files into IDA-STEP v4. It requires the PADS ASCII data files (*.asc) to import data.

This feature imports the following PCB and Printed Circuit Assembly (PCA) data:

  • detailed layout data of the PCB (layers, tracks, pads, physical nets, thickness, etc.);
  • PCA layout data (assembly, networks);
  • assembly information (parts, packages, lands, vias, keep-out areas, board-outline, etc.);
  • technology (Surface Mount Device (SMD), through hole, etc.);
  • full graphical information (2D).

Import feature is fully compliant with the ISO 10303-210 conformance classes (cc):

  • cc8 - Assembly Physical Design;
  • cc9 - Interconnect Design.
