Real-Time Component Sourcing and Supply Chain Visibility for PCB Design with OrCAD CIP

Published Date

Ensuring component availability during part selection is a critical requirement for successful PCB design. Without access to real-time distributor data, engineers risk selecting components that are unavailable, obsolete, or difficult to source, leading to redesigns, delays, and increased costs. This video highlights how engineers can integrate real-time supply chain data directly into the PCB design process using OrCAD CIP to improve component selection and ensure manufacturability.

OrCAD CIP empowers engineers to shift from reactive sourcing to a supply chain–aware design approach, where component availability, multi-sourcing, and real-time market data are evaluated alongside electrical requirements, ensuring that PCB designs are both technically sound and production-ready.
