Hi all

I would like to know if some of you have used Cadence Virtouso layout tool to make professional level layouts for pcbs for analog/RF applications.

I've got a couple of very skilled colleagues that use Virtouso to layout RFICs and I want them make pcb also. I'm wondering if it will be more convenient to use their skill in the same design environment or to let them learn a traditional pcb tool.

If anybody has a really professional experience to share (hints, difficulties, libraries, dxf export to gerber, lvs, drill files, and so on) I will appreciate it a lot.

Thanks.

HI ,

As I know virtuso is intended to use mainly for IC design. For PCB u can go for Aligro ,BoardStation,PADS,Portal,ORCAD ETC.. The designing consepts are more simpler than IC Layout design .

Virtuso use to layout analog IC by manual not automatic. Design PCB u can use Allergo, Orcad, Eagle or any CAD tools that support.
Regards.
