Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

Hi all,

I want to learn to generate output files (gerber, nc drill, etc) so that my board can be manufactured. I don't know from where to start.

Is there any tutorial about generating output files for Allegro 15.2?
And how to check if the output files are correct?

Thanks.

There is documentation within the Allegro environment that describes how to create artwork files and nc drill data. Look under the Allegro PCB Editor User Guide for the section "Preparing Manufacturing data".

You will learn there that the artwork files can be imported back into Allegro for review.

Hope this helps.

You may want to attend an EMA sponsered webinar on Feb 16; Preparing Design For Manufacturing.

I would also like to learn about test preparation (testprep) beyond what the User Guide has to offer in the Preparing Manufacturing Data for Allegro 15.5

Thanks,

You should start a new topic for this discussion.

What specifically do you want to know?
