OrCAD Component Information Portal (CIP)

OrCAD X PCB Design

OrCAD Component Information Portal (CIP) is a comprehensive OrCAD CIS database management and online component research environment. Together with OrCAD Capture CIS, the portal enables design teams to quickly and cost-effectively realize the full benefits of a shared component database and effective component management process.

Highlights
  • Easily add and maintain components and parametric data in the CIS database, saving time and resources
  • Speed up component research with integrated access to component parametric data from suppliers and vendors
  • Temporary part creation, allows working on designs while a new part is approved and introduced
  • Procurement professionals, librarians, and other non-engineering persons can use the web interface to search and select distributor part data using one common tool

OrCAD CIP Highlights

Starter Library and Schema
Get up and running quickly

Starter Library and Schema

OrCAD CIP provides enhanced access to a centralized CIS database, along with intuitive component database management. The portal comes complete with starter library of over 5,000 parts and database to eliminate the work associated with populating a CIS database from scratch, also including a pre-configured schema.

User Roles and Data Access
Permissions ensure accurate and verified data

User Roles and Data Access

OrCAD CIP supports user privileges and roles to define access rights to component data. Such support ensures data integrity and gives users access to only the information they need. Notifications can be enabled to inform stakeholders of changes as they happen, keeping everyone in sync. The portal also includes a web-based interface that enables non-OrCAD Capture CIS users, like those in documentation, library development, and purchasing, to have access to the parts database without using the OrCAD design software. This saves time in communication and helps cut costs by allowing purchasing to encourage the use of cost-effective parts.

Integrated New Part Introduction (NPI)
Automated process to manage NPI

Integrated New Part Introduction (NPI)

OrCAD CIP facilitates a process for temporary parts to be created, which can be used as a placeholder within a design as it moves forward. Temporary parts have to go through an extensive internal review process before it can be approved for use. This often requires significant overhead to complete the part, verify it, and add it to the system. The new part process reduces this overhead, ensuring new parts added will be complete, purchasable, and compliant.
