| Allegro® Design Workbench, an integral part of the Cadence Allegro system interconnect platform, is a suite of products that combines design tool integration, process control, data management, and library development and management in a single design environment. |
| |
| The Allegro Design Workbench is comprised of the following three product lines: |
 |
Allegro PCB Design Workbench provides a collaborative design and data management solution that is integrated with Allegro Design Entry HDL, Allegro PCB SI and Allegro PCB Editor. It furnishes a customizable work environment; parametric component search; and design data management. |
|
Allegro PCB Collaboration Workbench is designed for users who need to review and comment on designs and documents but may not have the tools that created them. Users can view and mark-up designs and related documents. |
|
Allegro PCB Library Workbench allows users to create, validate, manage, and disperse library parts and their associated data for use with Design Entry HDL, PCB SI and PCB Editor. |
