ODB++ requirement

Former Member

My company has Altium Designer & Eagle CAD tools for printed circuit board design. Recently my company is going to implement Valor system to our manufacturing. This Valor system ie required ODB++ data to interprate. I can export this ODB++ data from Altium Designer but the Eagle CAD software unable to do it.

Please advise what should i do as we have a lot of PCB files is using Eagle CAD tools.

 

Thank you and looking forward to hear from you.

    Hi,

     

    there are still no changes concerning ODB++ in EAGLE. Basically it is possible to write an ULP that allows exporting this data format. You only have to have a good description of the data format and a bit of skills in programming ULPs. But the User Language is fully documented in the EAGLE help.

     

    By the way:

    Recently I talked to a well-known board manufacturer and he told me that there are only very very few clients that are sending ODB++ data format. Gerber is considered simply as the better format.
