optimizes trace impedance while you sleep
You draft schematics and simulate circuits until the PCB finally passes design rule checks. Then you wait for prototypes.
The one thing AI can't do
You can still physically feel when a trace is routed wrong just by looking.
Your enemy, your name, your date. Post it.
Step by step, from the first quiet change to Deprecation Day.
Week 3
Vision models instantly map every component to your board layout.
Month 4
AI solvers run signal integrity tests faster than you can blink.
Month 10
Algorithms source parts automatically based on real-time availability and cost.
Month 13
Software detects logic errors and patches the design before production.
Month 19 · D-Day
The system prints the finished board while you archive your files.
What you cost, what the machine costs, and what you get on the way out.
