Take your PCB designs to the next level with Easy-PC 13
Adept Scientific has announced the release of Easy-PC Version 13, the popular printed circuit board and schematic design system, by Number One Systems (Tewkesbury, Glos).
Easy-PC is Europe’s leading ready-to-use PCB design product and the latest version is packed with over 45 significant new developments including:

Dual monitor support

Add a second screen to enable independent running of Easy-PC Schematics from one and Easy-PC PCB on the other with full communications between the two.

Design rulers

Design Rulers add horizontal and vertical rulers with graduations to the design window. The cursor position is constantly displayed in both ruler axes.

Component Editor interface to your spreadsheet

Processing of complicated devices has been significantly improved with the ability to import pin data directly into the Component Editor grid. For large devices with 144 pins or more and alphanumeric pin names/numbers, this is a huge time-saving feature.

Component checks

Component to Component spacing rules can now be defined within your PCB design. Shapes can also be used as component placement areas with Component to Component checking carried out in the DRC dialogue.

Sign-off checks

Define all your essential pre-manufacturing checks into an easy-to-use set of rules and run them from within the Design Rules Check (DRC) or Plotting dialogue before you actually send the design off for manufacturing.

Net Class matched lengths

Easy-PC 13 is able to define net lengths, values and tolerances. Once applied to Net Classes, any net using this class can be checked and any differences reported.

Composite Power-plane plots to one file

The new composite plane feature enables you to create a single plot of the full plane directly from Easy-PC. This single plot output is ready to use with no other processes required from your plot house or manufacturer.

Barcode text

Barcodes can be defined and added to your designs by using a special 'system' text font. Parameters such as the inter-line spacing and thickness can be defined, ensuring the barcode is the correct size and readable by the barcode reader.

Show nearest node on net during routing

There are now two possible ‘lines’ from the track end when routing manually; one shows the actual electrical node in the netlist and the other a dynamic connection to the nearest node on the same net.

Pan and Zoom improvements

Improvements to pan and zoom allows the sensitivity and the ability to reverse the mouse direction.


The Easy-PC product range is supplied and supported in the UK, Ireland, Germany, Austria and the Nordic countries by Adept Scientific. Products including new Easy-PC 13 can be ordered online at www.adeptstore.com.
