Horizon EDA

EDA layout and schematic application

Horizon EDA is an Electronic Design Automation package supporting an integrated end-to-end workflow for printed circuit board design including parts management and schematic entry.

Horizon is an Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tool for circuit board design. It manages the full design flow from schematic entry to gerber export. The main differentiator from KiCAD is a different (more sane) part library design. It is quite new software in 2018 so may have rough edges but is already very capable. . Notable features:

  • Sane library management
  • Unified editor for everything from symbol to board
  • Netlist-aware schematic editor
  • KiCad's awesome interactive router
  • Lag- and glitch-free rendering
  • Rule-based DRC
  • Undo/redo
  • Copy/paste for some objects
  • Builds and runs on Linux and Windows
