Real CAD for Stripboard

Other Prototyping Boards Too

Like a PCB layout program, VeeCAD takes a schematic generated netlist and assists you to build a layout - on strip (Veroboard), matrix, donut, tripad, Atarado Smart, and other prototyping boards. The usual design tools are provided: netlist import, component footprint definition, component positioning, wiring and connectivity check. You get full documentation, including a loading diagram, board overlay, parts and wires lists.

Completely Free

You get the complete program with with color, angled components, net tracing and autorouter.

Why use VeeCAD?

Engineers and hobbyists use VeeCAD for prototypes and small quantity builds, saving hours planning layouts on graph paper. VeeCAD makes prototyping practical where otherwise a PCB is required. Draw the schematic in your usual schematic editor, and after prototyping in VeeCAD use the same schematic with your PCB editor.
