Why Xpediton Advanced?

 
Master complexity. Accelerate innovation. Xpedition Advanced is an advanced multi-domain PCB and systems design solution for growing engineering teams building high-speed, high-density and rigid-flex PCB designs. It combines advanced routing automation, extended constraint intelligence, real-time multi-user schematic concurrency, built-in signal integrity verification and BluePrint-powered manufacturing automation to help teams design complex, performance-critical PCB designs faster, with less manual iteration and greater first-pass confidence.

  • Automates complex design and manufacturing workflows with advanced routing, sketch planning, design reuse and BluePrint-powered documentation, pack-and-release and assembly panel design
  • Applies extended constraint intelligence and integrated signal integrity verification to high-speed interfaces, dense layouts, rigid-flex designs and demanding stackups
  • Enables multiple engineers to work on the same schematic in real time, helping growing teams increase capacity without creating process bottlenecks
  • Connects ECAD, MCAD and manufacturing workflows to improve design alignment, validate intent earlier and reduce rework before production

Master complex designs

Design faster as speed and complexity rise. Advanced routing automation, sketch routing, planning and design reuse reduce manual effort. BluePrint-powered automation carries design intent into consistent production documentation.

Design with confidence

Build performance-critical boards with confidence. Extended electrical and physical constraints, high-speed routing, rigid-flex support and signal integrity checks identify issues, reduce rework and improve first-pass results.

Scale from design to production

Expand team capacity and connect engineering to manufacturing. Multi-user schematic concurrency enables parallel work, while ECAD-MCAD collaboration and BluePrint support pack-and-release and panel design through production.

Frequently asked questions about Xpedition Advanced

  • What is Xpedition Advanced?

    Xpedition Advanced is an advanced multi-domain PCB and systems design solution for growing engineering teams developing high-speed, high-density and rigid-flex designs. It combines advanced routing automation, extended constraint intelligence, real-time multi-user schematic design, integrated signal integrity verification, ECAD-MCAD collaboration and BluePrint-powered manufacturing automation in a connected design environment.

  • What makes Xpedition Standard different from other PCB design tools?

    Xpedition Advanced includes the core Xpedition design environment and workflows available in Xpedition Standard, while adding greater automation and engineering depth for more complex designs and growing teams. Advanced adds capabilities such as extended high-speed constraints, advanced automated routing, sketch planning, concurrent multi-user schematic design, included rigid-flex design, integrated signal integrity simulation, advanced ECAD-MCAD co-design and additional BluePrint capabilities such as pack and release and assembly panel design.

  • Who is Xpedition Advanced designed for?

    Xpedition Advanced is designed for growing engineering teams and individual engineers working on increasingly complex PCB designs. It is well suited for teams developing high-speed, high-density or rigid-flex boards that need more routing automation, stronger constraint management, earlier electrical verification and greater collaboration without requiring full enterprise infrastructure.

  • How does Xpedition Advanced help teams design complex PCBs faster?

    Advanced reduces manual effort across the design process with advanced routing automation, sketch routing, sketch planning, circuit reuse and workflow automation. Extended high-speed electrical constraints and integrated signal integrity verification help engineers identify issues earlier, while concurrent multi-user schematic design enables multiple engineers to work in parallel.

  • How does Xpedition Advanced support high-speed and performance-critical designs?

    Xpedition Advanced provides extended electrical and physical constraints for requirements such as time-of-flight delay, parallelism, crosstalk and topology. It also supports advanced differential-pair routing, HDI vias, tuning, rigid-flex design and integrated signal integrity simulation. Additional HyperLynx-powered analysis options are available for teams that require deeper performance verification.

  • Can multiple engineers work on the same schematic at the same time?

    Yes. Xpedition Advanced supports real-time, multi-user (up to three) concurrent schematic design. Multiple engineers can work on the same schematic in parallel, helping growing teams increase design capacity, reduce bottlenecks and standardize collaborative design processes.

    Teams that need to expand schematic capacity without assigning a full Xpedition Advanced license to every user can also use Xpedition Advanced DS, a schematic-only solution that supports concurrent schematic design.

  • How does Xpedition Advanced connect PCB design to manufacturing?

    Xpedition Advanced connects schematic and layout design with manufacturing preparation and documentation. It includes manufacturing output automation, Valor-powered DFM checks, BluePrint manufacturing drawing and documentation capabilities, panelization, pack and release, and assembly panel design. These capabilities help teams carry design intent into more consistent production-ready outputs and reduce manual preparation before fabrication and assembly.

  • Does Xpedition Advanced support ECAD-MCAD collaboration?

    Yes. Xpedition Advanced supports ECAD-MCAD co-design with leading mechanical design environments, including NX and other advanced MCAD tools. This helps ECAD and MCAD teams coordinate design intent, identify placement, fit and interference issues earlier, and reduce rework during integration.

  • Can we move from Xpedition Standard to Xpedition Advanced without translating our designs?

    Yes. Xpedition Standard and Xpedition Advanced are fully compatible in both directions for libraries and designs. Teams can adopt Advanced capabilities as their design and process requirements grow without changing the underlying design environment or disrupting established workflows.
