AI-Enhanced PCB Design with Allegro X AI

To keep up with industry time-to-market demands, engineers must design PCB layouts faster and smarter. Allegro X AI enables designers to leverage artificial intelligence to accelerate component placement, copper pours, and routing, streamlining PCB development. Allegro X AI is integrated directly within the OrCAD X and Allegro X PCB design environments and requires minimal setup above your typical design inputs to generate optimized and functional PCB layouts. Designers can utilize Allegro X AI to:

Accelerate PCB layout by up to 60-70%
Reallocate designer’s time to critical tasks
Jumpstart the PCB design
Evaluate placement strategies
Perform fitment studies
Analyze routing feasibility
Automate component placement
Optimize power delivery
Automatically route the PCB
