EDA(Electronics Design Automation)tool integrated environment is a new technology that develops quickly in electronic CAD field in recent years, which liberates designers from the complex design environment. So far, design and analysis softwares are abundant in EDA field, but all the EDA tools available are isolated from each other and the product data being in different EDA environment can not be shared. In this paper, based on the thinking of PDM and object-oriented integration, an integrated environment, Isomerous Integrated Design environment of Electronic Printed Board in Different Place, is developed to realize the source sharing and advantage complementing of different EDA tools. Protel.. Viewlogic.. Pspice, which are available in PC, and Mentor.. Cadence, which are available in workstation are now integrated. The whole environment applies client/server mode, and establishes a cooperative and concurrent product design managing system via the united administration of projects.. groups.. users and design files.
