Cadence Software Distribution and Support Process
Cadence Virtuoso software, a powerful tool for electronic design, is distributed electronically to customers with current maintenance agreements and Cadence Online Support or eDA-on-Tap web accounts. To keep users informed about product releases, Cadence Online Support allows users to set up their Software Update Preferences. By selecting their desired products, users receive email notifications with release information and links to easily access the updates. For those interested in downloading the software and staying up-to-date with the latest releases, Cadence Online Support or eDA-on-Tap accounts are essential.
Accessing Product Downloads and Release Information
Customers can access product release information and download software updates directly from the Cadence Downloads site using their current Cadence Online Support or eDA-on-Tap web account credentials. By setting up notification preferences through their user accounts, users can ensure they receive timely emails regarding updates for all Cadence software products. The Software Updates section within the user account provides easy access to the Downloads site, where users can input their preferences for software updates and installations.
Downloading and Installing with InstallScape
InstallScape offered by Cadence is a convenient application that simplifies the process of downloading and installing Cadence products in a single session. Users can choose to download specific products rather than complete CD images, which can then be saved in a local Archive directory. InstallScape streamlines the download and installation process, making it efficient and user-friendly for customers.
Free Physical Viewers and Interactive Calculators
Cadence provides free physical viewers like the Allegro X Free Viewer and OrCAD X Free Viewer for inspecting and sharing electronic design databases from Allegro X System Capture, PCB Editor, OrCAD X Capture CIS, and other software. Additionally, users can access the TX-LINE Free Interactive Calculator for analyzing and synthesizing transmission-line structures to enhance high-frequency designs. These tools offer valuable support for design visualization and analysis without the need for a license.
Additional Support Tools and Applications
In addition to the free tools, Cadence offers the cdsLib Plugin for reading and interpreting cds.lib files for OpenAccess-based applications. The Cadence Virtual Machine License Server enables customers to run license servers on virtual machines, providing flexibility in deployment. Moreover, the oaScan application helps identify and repair inconsistencies in OpenAccess design databases, ensuring data integrity and quality. These tools enhance the user experience and provide comprehensive support for diverse design needs.
