FreePCB is free layout software with all the important features.

so why are people paying for it from other vendors?

Re: Layout software


Does FreePCB provide possibilities to create constraint rules for 1200 MHz DDRQ RAM and crosstalking free Rocket I/O's ?

All the important, is a huge statement, that might be forefilled in Your case, but i find Expedition and Allegro more accurate for our needs.

But in private, Yes freePCB is perfect.
