PCB trace resistance
DC resistance, voltage drop, and copper loss.
Open calculatorPCB analysis software for exploring board data, multilayer geometry, and electrical power distribution.
TraceFlow is in development. The current build supports selected Gerber, drill, IPC-2581, and Altium data, with multilayer electrical analysis and a thermal estimate. Format coverage and full-board results still require validation. The free website tools cover simpler trace, via, and stencil models.
| Capability | Current status |
|---|---|
| Gerber and drill interpretation | In development; selected formats supported |
| IPC-2581 and Altium data | Partial support; supported subsets to be documented |
| Multilayer network analysis | In development; full-board validation pending |
| Thermal estimation | Preliminary estimate; thermal verification required |
The free trace and via calculators provide simple DC estimates. They use the supplied PCBA Workbench engine, not the full TraceFlow board solver.
