The software developer DownStream Technologies, LLC announced the launch new build 1771 of CAM350/DFMStream 14.5 & BluePrint-PCB 6.5. In this version addresses some minor stability and performance improvements.

CAM350/DFMStream 14.5 is a major update to CAM350 14.1. The major focus of this release is support of Rigid-Flex and Embedded part design data via import from ODB++ and IPC-2581 file formats. Several areas of the product were updated to support new layer types, new area types and multiple stackups common in these advanced design technologies. Additional updates include expanded drill and via in pad checking in DFM Analysis.
BluePrint 6.5 is an update to BluePrint 6.1 to include support for Rigid-Flex designs. They include the ability to import Rigid Flex designs and to visualize and manage those new features in 2D and 3D. A number of templates have been added and modified to appropriately document Rigid-Flex designs. In addition, many customers reported defects and enhancements have been resolved.
CAM350 14.5 New Functionality
– Import/Export of ODB++ and IPC2581 Rigid-Flex design data
– Import/Export of ODB++ and IPC-2581 embedded parts
– Stack Up Visualizer updates to visualize and manage multiple stackups and zones and PCB Cores.
– Stack Up Visualizer updates to support PCB Core definitions and data passing using an IPC2581 Stack Up exchange format
– Stack Up Visualizer, Materials Editor enhancements to support new material layer types and PCB Core data passing using an IPC2581 Stack Up exchange format
– 3D Viewing of Rigid-Flex designs, embedded components, slots, cutouts and cavities
– Creation and management of rigid-flex related areas:
. stack up zone areas
. bend, rigid, flex and stiffener areas
. layer profile areas
– Expanded drill checking and via-in-pad DFM analysis checks

69042 PCB View Template – first layer visibility settings are incorrect by default.

DownStream’s solutionsare the defacto standard for engineering professionals to post process PCB designs. Our tools help to create and distribute all the deliverables required for a complete PCB manufacturing and assembly release package.
CAM350is the industry de facto standard for verification, optimization and output generation to efficiently and effectively drive PCB fabrication and part of the truly integrated manufacturing data preparation solution from DownStream Technologies.
Today’s complex PCB designs require comprehensive verification before they are transferred to the PCB fabricator to ensure a successful and timely manufacture of bare boards. Problems arising during PCB fabrication can drastically impact product schedules, result in costly design re-spins, and require modifications to the design that might compromise the design’s integrity and intent. Inspecting, preparing and validating the PCB design prior to release to manufacturing will result in a significant increase in efficiency, less risk of design re-spin, and, most importantly, successful electronic products, built faster, at less cost.
3D visualization and documentation of manufacturing data helps to minimize manufacturing defects and delays in production.DFMStreamis a comprehensive, yet easy-to-use tool suite designed to help engineers and designers analyze, verify and optimize a PCB design for successful manufacturing. It checks design and manufacturing rules on PCB design databases, Gerber and NC data any time during the PCB design cycle. DFMStream also fosters collaboration between engineer/designer and fabricator.
BluePrint-PCBworks your PCB CAD system and/or CAM350 to help you quickly produce comprehensive electronic drawings to drive PCB fabrication, assembly and inspection processes.
