The increasing involvement of AI-powered tools in various stages of electronic design has led to a complex array of tools and diverse functional needs. Are you searching for an electronic design platform that integrates all design functionalities that you need in one place?

We are thrilled to unveil the integration of KiCad's layout design features into the CELUS design platform! By integrating advanced tools and intuitive features, CELUS empowers engineers and designers to navigate intricacies with ease. 

A Complete PCB Project Package

The new addition of KiCad layout features offer a complete PCB Project package, enabling you to kickstart your PCB projects effortlessly. With our integration, you won't need to add additional libraries or footprints. These are included in the project package, allowing you to update the PCB, create the ratsnest, begin placement and routing efficiently.

The Benefits of CELUS × KiCad Integration

  • Component Search: The CELUS design platform automates component search, saving you time.
  • Pre-Existing Symbols and Footprints: Exporting a project into KiCad means you don't need to create new symbols and footprints from scratch; they're already in the schematic and layout files.

Steps to Complete Your Project

  1. Rename Nets: Adjust nets to your preference (if needed).

  2. Update the PCB: Sync from the schematic.

  3. Add PCB Settings: Apply settings from your favorite board house.

  4. Start Routing: Begin the routing process.

  5. Order PCB and Components: Finalize your design and order the necessary components for assembly.

Now, you have a working circuit!

Experience the Difference

The old practice of PCB designs required manually adding additional symbols and PCB footprints, which could create a lot of hassle.

At CELUS, we stand by our users, detect their electronics design pain points and potential pitfalls, prioritize continuous innovation, and strive to stay ahead in the electronics design industry. We are more than just a platform; we are a catalyst for innovation!
