CircuitWorks can
generate MCAD change files based on board outline and cutout changes. You can then send
these changes as IDX 3 files to Cadence®
Allegro®.
ECAD either accepts or rejects each of these changes.
Based on the ECAD IDX 3 response file, rejected changes reappear in
CircuitWorks. Click Build Model to apply those changes to the
SOLIDWORKS assembly.
When you make board
outline or cutout changes, any other changes are omitted from the same change file (such
as components, holes, or keep in/keep out areas). You need to send those as additional
changes later.
