Contest
EMA Design Automation® (ema-eda.com), a full-service provider of Electronic Design Automation (EDA) solutions, has launched a ‘Can You Spot the Difference’ Contest for Electrical Engineers.
The contest highlights the design compare function added in the new OrCAD 17.2 2016 release which helps users quickly identify what changes are made between PCB design revisions.
“We are excited about the release of the new capabilities for OrCAD. This new graphical compare function is a powerful tool addressing the specialized needs of our users,” said Manny Marcano, President of EMA Design Automation. “Engineers can quickly and easily identify both graphical and electrical differences between two schematics on a page-by-page basis.”
The contest begins on Tuesday, May 24, 2016 and will continue until Tuesday, June 7, 2016 at 12AM EST.
In order to enter the contest, participants must find and identify 10 differences between two schematics in a PDF and either email emamarketing@ema-eda.com or tweet @EMA_EDA a picture or scan of their findings. There are other opportunities for participants to earn additional entries as well. One lucky winner will receive a Raspberry Pi 3 and 16GB, 10class, with NOOBS.
