CoDesigner works directly with electrical and mechanical data via a built-in panel within Altium Designer^® or Altium NEXUS^® and a plug-in built into the MCAD application. No manual conversion and exchange of files required!

Stress-Free Collaboration

Fast and Manageable

CoDesigner provides fast results by only analyzing and applying design changes. You always maintain control by choosing which changes to apply.

Design in Context

CoDesigner enables you to work in the context of your device assembly with native MCAD data, which keeps your mechanical references healthy.

Focus on Engineering

Let CoDesigner deal with revisions and data formats, so you can focus on what truly matters – your design.

Key Capabilities

Board Setup

Set up the initial board geometry (incl. holes, cutouts, keep out areas) in MCAD (according to an enclosure) and transfer it to ECAD.

Mechatronics

Place mechatronic components (like connectors, displays, and LED's) in MCAD and automatically place the corresponding full component footprints in ECAD.
