Cadence® ActiveParts Portal automates the process of part selection and extends the reach of engineers using Cadence OrCAD® Capture CIS. ActiveParts Portal is FREE for users on the most current release of OrCAD Capture CIS on an active maintenance contract. It is a built into OrCAD Capture CIS and does not require additional software installation.



Engineers spend considerable time searching books and catalogs for the right parts to use in their schematics. Even after finding a part, they spend more time creating a symbol and adding the component information to place it into the schematic. With the ActiveParts Portal, searching is simple and placing a symbol into the schematic is as easy as a mouse click.

Users can search for parts based on a variety of attributes such as electrical description, manufacturer, technology, and part number - to name a few. In addition, they can add a local parts database. This allows users to easily develop an OrCAD Capture CIS database and library set.

Features/Benefits

• Expedites the component research process by automating searches and allowing components to saved and placed directly onto a schematic page
• Facilitates library development through the ability to download any symbol to a local library
• Reduces time spent searching for the right component with intelligent search options
