- New analysis modes and checks for zone adherence of symbol pins are added for Rigid-Flex designs. Support is added for nested zones that have different masking, plating, or stack-up requirements from the rest of the zone. Also added is the support for standard shape commands on zones. Fill-In Material in Cross-section Editor can now source the common materials file (.cmx).
- 3DX Canvas has packaging support for objects, such as wire bonds, ball, die bump, pillar geometries, die stacks, etch back, and so on. New 3D DRCs are added to Constraint Manager, namely, Wire to Wire, Wire to Finger, Wire to Shape, Wire to Cline, and Wire to Component.
- Fillets are dynamically updated while routing to meet silicon fillet rules; you can dynamically add tapered trace fillets when working with Allegro X Advanced Package Designer with the Silicon Layout option.
- In Padstack Editor, you can define counterbore or countersink from the primary or secondary side; it is no longer bound to the side the component is placed on. The Drill Legend and NC Drill features indicate if drilling is required from the secondary side, eliminating the need to inform the fabricator about secondary drilling requirements. You can now use oval and rectangular slots in microvia padstack.
- You can freeze dynamic shapes without changing them to static in situations where you must maintain design intent and protect critical circuitry drawn using shapes.
- The Design Review and Markup feature is added for reviewing designs through markups. You can even review the markup with canvas auto-centering and layer display.
- Various usability enhancements are available in the areas of 3D canvas, 3D model export, dimensioning environment, copying etch shapes to layers, converting lines or clines to shapes, netlist imports from external sources, new reports, and many others.
- New high-voltage constraints to verify creepage and clearance are available in Allegro X. The DRC system recognizes non-plated slots between two high-voltage objects and recalculates creepage around the slots. The Creepage/Clearance Vision option provides color-coded information to review the DRC errors.
- Managing library change impact on board designs is simplified with Symbol Revision Manager (SRM) integrated with Allegro X PCB Editor connected to Allegro X Pulse server.
Sigrity Aurora
- A new Sigrity XtractIM workflow offering quick package design parasitic analysis is added to Allegro X Advanced Package Designer. Two new analyses are also supported, Per Pin (Die-side Power) and Per Net (Signal).
