Abstract: The present invention enables a user to create, modify, simulate and save an electrical circuit using an Internet browser over an Internet connection. The user can change the connectivity of the circuit as well as add and/or remove components in a free form manner. The schematic is displayed within a web page on the user's machine with which the user may interact. Block symbols may be used to represent at least a portion of the schematic.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for thermally simulating a circuit over a network is provided. Techniques are provided for designing a circuit that satisfies user-specified functional requirements received over a network. Based on the specified requirements, components and a topology for constructing the circuit are automatically determined. The components determined during this operation have operational values such that, when the components are arranged according to the topology to form the circuit, the circuit satisfies the user-specified functional requirements. One or more web pages that identify the components are then delivered to the browser over the network. The component and topology information may be used to generate a schematic diagram that is delivered in a web page to the user over the network. The user may thermally simulate the designed circuit. Many characteristics of the board may be adjusted to provide an accurate thermal simulation.

Abstract: Techniques are provided for designing a circuit that satisfies user-specified functional requirements without the user having to obtain additional education or possess specialized software. According to one embodiment, user-specified functional requirements are received over a network from a client executing a browser. The network may be, for example, the Internet. Based on the user-specified requirements, components and a topology for constructing the circuit are automatically determined. The components determined during this operation have operational values such that, when the components are arranged according to the topology to form the circuit, the circuit satisfies the user-specified functional requirements. One or more web pages that identify the components are then delivered to the browser over the network. According to one aspect of the invention, the component and topology information is used to generate a schematic diagram that is delivered in a web page to the user over the network.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for PCB layout of a circuit simulated over a network is provided. Techniques are provided for designing a circuit that satisfies user-specified functional requirements received over a network. Based on the specified requirements, components and a topology for constructing the circuit are automatically determined. The components determined during this operation have operational values such that, when the components are arranged according to the topology to form the circuit, the circuit satisfies the user-specified functional requirements. The components are placed on a PC board having landing areas designed to accommodate all of the anticipated component sizes for the type of circuit being designed. The PC board may be cropped to the desired size. The PCB may be cropped automatically or manually by the user. The component and topology information may be used to generate a schematic diagram that is delivered in a web page to the user over the network.
