ChunkSchematic is a simple, yet incredibly powerful and flexible schematic capture software package for Windows. At Chunk Systems we design effects pedals for bass guitar. For years we've been looking for a reliable and affordable schematic capture tool which gives us results in a useful netlist format. Eventually we gave up and wrote our own.
Anyone can download and use ChunkSchematic, but a license for the correct pin count is required to export a netlist. You can obtain licenses in two ways:
1. You can purchase them at an affordable price.
2. You can contribute to the publically available library of parts for ChunkSchematic. Chunk Systems will reward your contribution by offering you extra license capacity.
The idea behind this purchasing system is that ChunkSchematic can be useful for everybody from hobbyists and students through to professional engineers.

Free Routing Software
www.freerouting.net
Free push & shove routing software a new high quality push & shove routing software for printed circuit boards is available.

The application is written in Java and currently completely free.
It communicates with host PCB-design systems via the standard Specctra (Electra) DSN Interface. There exists also an interface to Cadsoft Eagle.

The interactive push&shove router is production stable and unsurpassed in its free angle capabilities.

The autorouter is currently under development.
It is already stable in the standard 45 degree routing mode.
The speed of the autorouter is still a bit slow, but the quality of the routing results is very good when compared with the results of existing autorouters.

As of August 23, 2006, the full version of Ranger2 PCB CAD software is now available as a freeware version. According to the manufacturer, it has become uneconomic to sell Ranger2 due to the administration costs involved. But rather than discontinue a very popular product, the company has decided to offer it as a freeware version. All Ranger2 designs and libraries are fully upwards compatible with the current Ranger2 XL and Ranger XL packages.

Key features include:

* Schematic: eight sheets - A5 to A1; auto-allocation of parts and pins; macros; up to eight power rails.

* ArtWork: 25 µm resolution; 16 000 pins, 1400 components; 16 layers; 16 track and 16 pad sizes per design; an 800 by 800 mm PCB area; gate and pin swapping; back annotation; signal highlight; autorouter (single or double-sided).

* Outputs: printers/plotters with Windows drivers, Gerber, NC drill files and HPGL.

* General: Futurenet pinlist input; Gerber input.

* DXF: transfer and interfaces to Specctra auto-router.
