AAdd ArcSeg
This program converts 90 and 45 degree
routing into arced segments.
• Automatically detects differential
pairs when one trace is selected.
• Control the Arc radius.
• Works with metric an imperial designs.

AAdd DataCopy
Copy the testpoints from any design to your
current board.
• Program determines if a suitable location
exists (a via or pin must be present),
and no
pre-existing testpoint is present at the
location.
• Use the same bed of nails fixture for multiple
designs.

|
|
AMod Height
Modify the minimum component height or maximum component height values, to
one or multiple components, in a single pass.
• Select target components by refdes, symbol
type
or component type.
• Saves time compared to fixing the database,
or changing the values
one at a time.

AAdd Restrict
Re-Named to AAdd KeepOut
Add Route and Via keep-outs automatically and interactively to components, pins, vias,
fiducials, text, lines, shapes (logos) and holes. Keeps Specctra from placing tracks or vias where you don't want them.
• Add user defined Route and Via Keep -
outs to components bodies and pins
automatically.
• Add Via Keep-outs to silkscreen lines
and text, before auto-routing.
• Add Route keep-outs between the pins
of DIL and QFP devices .
• Interactively add circular, square or
rectangular Route and Via Keep-outs
to any hole or pin.
• Components can be in any angle of
rotation.
• Works in all units of measure.
(metric/imperial)
• Reduces board clean-up time. Let
Specctra figure out the via's placement.

AMod_Object
This program behaves almost like the UniCAD layout tools. When users select a symbol, a pin, a via, a copper
track or a text; all the programs related to the selected object are available at the right mouse button.
1. If a Symbol is selected, user can "Move" it to a new location with the "Left-Mouse". Other features user can select on the "Right-Mouse" are:
- Move By Offset.
- Move By User Entry.
- Delete (i.e. Unplace symbol).
- Rotate (i.e. 90 degree increment).
- Relayer (i.e. Mirror symbol to other layer).
- Lock/Unlock.
- Query Pins.
2. If a Pin is selected, user can "Route" a track with the "Left-Mouse". Other features user can select on the "Right-Mouse" are:
- Route/Unroute.
- Lock/Unlock.
- Net Merge.
- Test Probe (i.e.Probe Add, Probe Delete, Probe Lock, Probe Unlock, Select Probe Layer).
- Query Pad Stack.
- Change Pad Stack.
3. If a Via is selected, user can "Route" a track with the "Left-Mouse". Other features user can select on the "Right-Mouse" are:
- Route/Unroute.
- Lock/Unlock.
- Net Merge.
- Delete.
- Test Probe (i.e.Probe Add, Probe Delete, Probe Lock, Probe Unlock, Select Probe Layer).
- Query Pad Stack.
- Change Pad Stack.
4. If a copper-track is selected, user can "Route" a track with the "Left-Mouse". Other features user can select on the "Right-Mouse" are:
- Relayer (i.e. Relocate track to other layer and vias are added on both ends).
- Route/Unroute.
- Lock/Unlock.
- Net Merge.
- Delete (i.e. Only delete a segment).
- Test Probe (i.e. A "virtual" probe can be added to the track).
- Query.
- Change Seg Width.
5. If a text is selected, user can "Move" it with the "Left-Mouse". Other features user can select on the "Right-Mouse" are:
- Delete.
- Rotate.
- Text2Symbol (i.e. This will link a text to a symbol).
- ChangeText.
- Change Width

AMod_Shape
This program allows users to modify the symbol shapes on layer "PACKAGE GEOMETRY/PLACE_BOUND_" to a new symbol shapes
on layer "PACKAGE GEOMETRY/ASSEMBLY_".
|
AMod_Signal --> ReNamed to AMod_Net
This program allows users to merge new NETS to selected PINS, VIAS or CLINES.
If the net is not yet defined, the program will define a new one then proceed to merge the net. Also, users can
query the unused nets and remove them.
