your source for verified component libraries
Cadence tools
The part choices you make at the beginning of your product development cycle can make or break the success of your end product. You want to pick the best components for your application without spending too much time evaluating and building parts. With everything there is to consider in the design and implementation of a PCB, choosing order-able/compliant components and building part models is not where you want to spend the bulk of your time. Accessing pre-built verified libraries is now the easiest step in your design process with Ultra Librarian®. Search, preview and download component libraries built to IPC and ANSI industry standards in just a matter of minutes. We currently support exports for both Cadence OrCAD and Allegro software suites.
access parts DIRECTLY INSIDE OrCAD
Ultra Librarian has teamed up with Cadence to provide users with access to millions of pre-built parts directly inside OrCAD. The Ultra Librarian plug-in for OrCAD provides a unified library solution by automatically linking elements of the part as a single component with multiple views for logical (schematic symbol), physical(PCB footprint), and three-dimensional (3D STEP model). You can now preview, download and place symbols directly into your schematic and access the associated PCB footprint and 3D Model for PCB layout and rendering purposes.
See How OrCAD Uses Our Service
Cadence OrCAD software offers high-performance PCB Design tools with the goal of boosting productivity. In order to mitigate errors within the design process, OrCAD teamed up with Ultra Librarian to provide users with access to all the parts they need within the software to complete their designs. With access to Ultra Librarian’s massive library of parts, OrCAD customers can now preview, download, and place symbols directly into their schematic without ever leaving the design environment.
On average, users reported saving three hours per component to develop and verify symbols and footprints, with more time to focus on the integrity of their designs.
