Student Reviews"If you would like to have a head start on Orcad schematic capture and PCB layout and don't have time or budget to take a 2-3 day training class which normally cost about at least $2000 dollars, this course will do. This course helped me tremendously with my real life project - I really appreciate the course - I'm glad I found it at the time when I need it the most. I strongly recommend this course!"-- CD Dao"Its good to learn the pspice simulation along with the pcb designing... Thank you"-- Puneet MugalDescriptionHave you been looking for the best tool to design simple electronics printed circuit boards for free? Even more so, have you tried learning OrCAD, but it was too hard to learn without help? Wouldn't it be great if there were short videos, created by experienced users, with tutorials on PCB and schematic design using Cadence's OrCAD software?If you are looking for an in-depth walkthrough of the PCB design process and an introduction on how to use OrCAD Capture and PCB Editor, look no further. In this course you will use OrCAD Lite 17.2 to test out and learn the most important features of OrCAD Capture CIS, PSPICE and PCB Editor for free.The Circuits You Will Be DesigningThis introductory course shows you how to create 3 very simple printed circuit boards:A small, 2-layer LED + Resistor circuit with 2 connectors
A 2-layer asynchronous multivibrator circuit with 2 transistors, 4 resistors, 2 capacitors, 2 LEDs, connectors, and test points
A 2-layer re-mixed version of the asynchronous multivibrator circuit that also includes a 555 timer chip and 3D modeling.
What I like about the above circuits is they have just the right amount of simplicity for you to focus on the electronics engineering design process. At the same time, the above circuit projects have enough variety to demonstrate most of the skills you need to create through-hole and surface-mount footprints and finish a standard PCB.

Introduction 2 lectures 05:00 Introduction to OrCAD Lite In this video you learn why it is important to know OrCAD / Allegro as an electronics design engineer or hardware design engineer. Learn which big companies use this amazingly powerful software tool to build their building electronics hardware designs. How to install OrCAD Lite You can follow along in this course with a free light version of the OrCAD design software suite on a Windows PC (only). OrCAD is very similar to Allegro and everything that covered in this course, you can complete for free in OrCAD Lite. Also, you can use the OrCAD Lite software indefinitely and do not have to upload your designs to a cloud for others to see. Extra Note: You may also download OrCAD Trial (for 30 days) and it gives you the full features and functionality for 30 days, then it reverts back to OrCAD Lite. So if you want the full power of this software, including Auto-routing, you can try OrCAD Trial for your circuit simulation and PCB design today!
