74 DESIGN007 MAGAZINE I APRIL 2023
Numerical Innovations (NI) announced its official release of ACE
2D/3D Translator Version 8.3.0 (64-bit). ACE 2D/3D Translator is
a "Full-Featured" CAD Software solution that will easily convert
between ALL common EDA and CAD formats: DXF, Gerber,
GDS-II, DWG, Postscript, PDF, HPGL, NC Drill/Rout, OASIS,
Image files, ODB++, IPC-2581, SVG, and 3D formats STEP, STL.
In this survey, we're asking our PCB designer readers to discuss their
material selection processes and the use of references such as slash
sheets during this process. The results will be published in upcoming
issues of Design007 Magazine. From the survey responses we've seen so
far, designers are split when it comes to slash sheets. What is your material
selection process?
Tempo Automation Holdings, a leading
software-accelerated electronics manufac-
turer, announced that it has entered into a
definitive agreement to acquire Optimum
Design Associates, Inc. and Optimum
Design Associates Pty. Ltd., a fast-growing
electronic design services company with
offices in the United States and Australia
that has delivered over 10,000 PCB
designs to blue-chip customers.
When two (or more) electromagnetic fields
overlap or meet, they add vectorially at each
point in space. Fields have direction and
polarity. At any point in space, there can be
only one field, so at some spatial points,
they will cancel each other, and at others,
they will re-enforce each other. James Clerk
Maxwell described electromagnetic fields as
being linear.
