MARLBOROUGH, MA – The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has granted DownStream Technologies a patent for certain technology covering the automation of PCB documentation in an electronic release package file. The patent is related to technologies in DownStream’s BluePrint-PCB software. The patent further covers the core technology contained in the BluePrint-PCB shape engine, which is configured to display simultaneous views of a PCB CAD database; the use of reconfigurable objects that display different views of the CAD database; the technology behind BluePrint’s template elements that can be customized and linked to the CAD database, and technology that automates engineering change orders (ECO) in the CAD database as reflected in the release package. BluePrint-PCB was released in 2006 for automating the creation of comprehensive electronic PCB documentation.
