Electronic Design Studio 3 is an integrated EDA. The project and netlist navigators let you move around your project easily, and the comprehensive range of tools including the fast powerful Viper II autorouter, and new DTM mean that you can spend less time swapping between packages and more time designing. Other features include hierarchical schematics, integrated SPICE/XSPICE simulation, CADCAM, active shape based copper pour zones, realtime DRC, online connectivity, advanced Polyblend and shaping tools and a totally customisable user interface. The built in project wizard also makes starting new projects easy, creating all the necessary documents, importing and capturing netlists and then generating a PCB document with the board size required. Once this is done, creating schematics in EDS couldnt be easier. Drag and drop symbols into documents from the browser, and wire them using the automatic 'follow me' wiring tools. Simple.
