EMA DESIGN AUTOMATION PCB Clustering for OrCAD provides AutoClustering technology, intelligent design (IP) reuse and replication technology that can significantly reduce board placement time. Software product resides directly in the OrCAD PCB Editor canvas. Related components are typically grouped together in the schematic. Product can leverage this information to auto-generate tiled placement clusters, which can be based on hierarchy, pages, reference designator prefixes/suffixes and/or ROOM properties defined in the schematic. This permits a quick logical grouping in the physical realm, enabling faster placement. http://go.ema-eda.com/OrCADPCBClustering
