Multiboard Schematic
Create board-to-board connectivity and verify net-to-pin assignments and pin-to-pin interconnects. Changes and updates can be pushed down into affected PCB projects or bought back up to the source system schematic. A system-level BOM can be created to provide a single source BOM across the multi-board project, eliminating the need to manually combine individual sub-project BOMs.
