Introduced in the late 1980s by CADAM, PADS-PCB and PADS-2000 were among the first professional PCB design tools available for DOS-based personal computers. They offered basic schematic capture and manual routing capabilities, breaking the monopoly of expensive Unix workstation tools. PADS PowerPCB (Versions 1.0 to 5.0)
PADS acquired HyperLynx for signal integrity and ACT for simulation.
The PADS VX series was a major milestone in the evolution of PADS. The following are some of the notable releases:
