Integrated BOM Ordering: Yes I know, I should probably check part availability before I do a PCB design. MultiSim Blue is very useful when you are looking to creating more complex boards that you intend to have manufactured.ģ. Board Size and Layers: Again, most decent tools limit you to ridiculously small footprints or to two signal layers unless you are willing to spend a significant amount of money. MultiSim Blue supports simulation with the Berkeley Spice engine.Ģ. SPICE Simulation: There are quite a few decent circuit capture and PCB layout tools, but reliable simulation packages are hard to find. If you are just getting started but are looking to do a little more than just blink and LED, here are some key benefits that might just entice you to give the software a try:ġ. That’s a hard price to beat especially for makers who would much rather spend money on project materials. If you haven’t done so already, head over to the MultiSIM BLUE website and download the software. MultiSIM BLUE, a project spearheaded by Mouser and NI, is one such product. The most important thing that a product can do for us is to streamline our workflow while still delivering high quality results. The line between these two worlds is rapidly evaporating as the tools that enable circuit design plummet in cost and skyrocket in capability.

It’s a great time to be an electronics engineer and an even better time to be a weekend warrior tinkerer.
