TopoR 7.0.18 | Advanced PCB Topological Routing & Auto-Placement Software
TopoR 7.0.18 is a powerful, specialized printed circuit board (PCB) design software focused on automated topological routing and component placement optimization. It provides engineers with advanced algorithms for creating high-density, manufacturable PCB layouts with superior signal integrity characteristics.
Core Functionality Overview:
-
Intelligent Topological Autorouting: Features advanced topological routing algorithms that find optimal paths for connections considering design rules, net classes, and electrical constraints. Automatically generates smooth, angle-free traces with controlled impedance and minimal crosstalk .
-
Interactive & Semi-Automatic Placement: Includes tools for optimal component placement with thermal considerations, group placement, and automatic placement optimization to minimize routing complexity and board size .
-
Advanced Manufacturing Preparation: Generates industry-standard manufacturing outputs including Gerber (RS-274X), Excellon NC drill files, IPC-D-356 netlist, and ODB++ with comprehensive design rule checking (DRC) and design for manufacturing (DFM) verification .
-
Multi-Criteria Optimization: Balances multiple design objectives including signal integrity, thermal management, manufacturability, and cost through sophisticated optimization algorithms that evaluate thousands of routing alternatives .
-
3D Visualization & Interference Checking: Provides realistic 3D board visualization with component models for mechanical interference checking and clearance verification between board layers and components .
-
Comprehensive Import/Export Support: Imports designs from major EDA systems via P-CAD, PADS, Altium, and standard formats (DXF, IDF, Gerber). Exports to mechanical CAD systems for enclosure design and thermal analysis .
