Route to trunk for interfaces: Used in conjunction with breakout planning to route main body (trunk) of an interface.
Split view: Initially introduced with Auto-interactive Breakout tuning, users can use split views to see one end of an interface bundle in one view and the other end of the interface in another allowing users to zoom into the two ends
Scribble routing: Scribble is a simple routing mode that allows you to ‘scribble’ a route path onto the canvas. Once a click is made, the etch solution for the scribble path will be generated. Scribble provides a quick two-pick methodology to generate complex route paths, along with very controlled usage of push/shove based on the scribble path
Slide Etch During Component Move
Auto re-routes etch to either 45 or 90 degree angles, eliminating time to clean up etch after moving a component that is already routed
IPC-2581 provides an intelligent, robust methodology for driving manufacturing. Allegro PCB Editor has supported IPC-2581 since 16.5 release. This QIR allows users to output IPC-2581 in RevB format and supports enhancements for assembly data (Pin1, Polarity markings, pick up point, and other assembly-related data). For more information about IPC-2581 consortium, visit www.ipc2581.com.
