(Working EE who primarily does board and system design.)&lt;p&gt;These layout automations they show in the landing page are the first thing they’ve showcased that I’m intrigued enough to want to try for myself.&lt;p&gt;The thing I wonder about with all of these EDA companies is whether any of them understand that they’re not attacking the biggest problem of circuit design.&lt;p&gt;Capturing the SCH&amp;#x2F;PCB is a relatively small part of the process of getting a working design ready to sell. Less than ten percent of the time, I’d guess. The bulk goes in to design documentation, testing, certification, compliance, and DFM&amp;#x2F;DFA.&lt;p&gt;A part of me sort of hates to see these companies do their thing, because it’s making the fun part of the job shorter and faster.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>JITX – The Fastest Way to Design Circuit Boards</title><url>https://www.jitx.com</url></story>
