    1. This lab document provides instructions on using Auto Router and Auto Placer tools to transfer a schematic design to a PCB layout. 2. Students are instructed to draw a sample schematic, set design rules, and use the Auto Router to route traces between components on the board. Non-connected routes may require rerouting traces or adding jumpers. 3. The Auto Placer is then used to automatically place components in the board layout within a defined board edge box. The routed design can be further optimized by adjusting placement and design rules.

    1.0 OBJECTIVE
    1.1 To use Auto Router for PCB routing.
    1.2 To use Auto Placer to place the components.

    2.0 PART 1: Auto Router


    PROCEDURE:

    ECAD (BET 3063)


    2.1 Draw a schematic circuit as shown in Figure 2.1. (Reminder!!! When you
    draw or design a circuit, make sure to check the correct component
    with a correct PCB footprint)

    Figure 2.1

    2.2 Make sure to save the design repeatedly. To transfer the schematic
    circuit to PCB, press the icon at toolbar (see Figure 2.2).

    Figure 2.2

    2.3 After that, ARES Professional software automatically open and the
    following window
    will appear
    (see Figure
    LAB 5

    2.3). Double
    click Generic
    Single Layer.

    2.4 The component used in ISIS Professional will appear in component area
    (see Figure 2.4).

    Figure 2.4

    2.5 Follow the step in Figure


    2.5 to insert the
    component in
    workspace area.

    Figure 2.5

    2.6 Follow the step in Figure 2.6 to insert other component in workspace area.
    You can freely arrange the component with your own creativity.

    2.7 After done placing the component, click icon ‘Design Rule Manager’
    (see Figure 2.7).

    Figure 2.7
    LAB 5

    2.8 Set the following parameter (POWER) in ‘Design Rule Manager’ window
    (see Figure 2.8).

    2.9 Set other parameter (SIGNAL) in ‘Design Rule Manager’ window (see
    Figure 2.9). After that, press OK.

    Figure 2.9

    2.10 Click ‘Auto-Router’ icon .Then, the other window appear ‘Shape
    Based Auto Router’ (Figure 2.10). Click ‘Begin Routing’.

    2.11 The computer start to route the PCB traces and PCB traces will appear
    after it done (see Figure 2.11). The non-connected path can be seen
    with green color.

    ECAD (BET 3063)


    Figure 2.11

    2.12 To solve the non-connected path you can rearrange the component
    place or you can draw a trace and hole (to replace it with jumper
    wire – learn from lab 4). Then, you need to do the ‘Auto-Router’ again

    3.0 PART 2: Auto Placer


    PROCEDURE:
    3.1 Open the schematic circuit that you have drawn in procedure 2.1 and save
    it with different name.

    3.2 Repeat procedure 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4.

    3.3 Next, follow the step shown in Figure 3.1. First, click ‘2D Graphics Box
    Mode’. After that, select ‘Board Edge’.

    3.4 Draw a box on workspace (you can draw with any size – should be
    indicated with yellow line). Purpose of draw this box is to set the limit
    for PCB Auto Route / also can be indicated as the actual PCB board
    size.

    3.5 Then, go to Tools >> Auto Placer (see Figure 3.2).

    ECAD (BET 3063)


    Figure 3.2

    3.6 Auto Placer window appear. PRESS OK. All parameter is set to ‘default’,
    no need to change anything unless you doing the advanced routing
    (see Figure 3.3).

    3.7 All component will be place on workspace automatically (see Figure 3.4).

    ECAD (BET 3063)


    Figure 3.4

    3.8 If not successful, please adjust the box (Board Edge) size by
    dragging the mouse cursor at the box edge. Also you can delete and
    redraw the box again.

    3.9 After that, you can repeat procedure 2.7 until 2.12 to use the Auto Router.
    You can try other ‘Trace Style’ and ‘Neck Style’ in Design Rule
    Manager window.

    4.0 PART 3: EXERCISE

    4.1 Draw a schematic circuit as shown in Figure 4.1 (see Appendix A).
    (Reminder!!! When you draw or design a circuit, make sure to check
    the correct component with a correct PCB footprint)

    4.2 Transfer the schematic circuit to PCB layout and save it after finish.

    5.0 DISCUSSION & CONCLUSION

    Discuss what you have learn from the lab module and give a conclusion in the
    lab report.
