Printed Circuit Board Designer Downloads & RevenuePrinted Circuit Board Designer · App Store

Turn your iPhone or iPad into a complete printed-circuit-board workbench. Printed Circuit Board Designer lets you go from an idea to a fabrication-ready board without a desktop — place components, route copper across multiple layers, verify your work, and export the exact files a manufacturer needs.

Whether you are wiring up your first Arduino shield or refining a production layout between meetings, the app scales to how you work.

FOUR WORKSPACES

• Parts Library — A searchable catalog of real components, each with a proper schematic symbol, multiple footprint choices, pin-by-pin detail, and notes on where it fits. Browse passives, MOSFETs and transistors, LEDs (including addressable WS2812B), microcontrollers like ATmega328P, RP2040, ESP32-S3 and STM32F103, plus sensors such as the BME280 and MPU-6050, op-amps, shift registers, USB-C, regulators, and tactile switches.

• Board Templates — Start from a proven circuit and tweak it to taste. Pick from power supplies, an Arduino-class ATmega328P board, an RP2040 design, an H-bridge motor driver, an I2C sensor front-end, an ESP32 wireless sensor node, a WS2812B LED-strip driver, and a CP2102 USB-to-UART bridge. Set a few parameters and a starter layout appears.

• AI Board Designer — Describe what you want in plain language and let an AI model draft the whole thing: chosen parts, net connections, a bill of materials, placement, and design notes. Send the result straight into the editor to refine. Works with Claude (Anthropic), GPT-4o (OpenAI), or Gemini (Google) using your own key.

• CAD Editor — A full two-layer editor with placement on F.Cu and B.Cu, trace routing, and via insertion. A Lee wave-propagation autorouter with A* heuristics handles diagonal routes and drops vias automatically when a net needs to switch layers. The built-in Design Rule Check flags trace-width and clearance problems, shorts, bad via sizes, overlapping parts, and anything that runs past the board edge — before you spend money on fabrication.

EXPORT THAT MANUFACTURERS ACCEPT

• Gerber RS-274X — copper, silkscreen, solder mask, and drill
• KiCad .kicad_pcb native format
• SVG and PDF for documentation and review
• JSON netlist for downstream tools
• A single ZIP with the full Gerber set, ready to upload

TUNED TO YOUR PROCESS

Design rules are per-board and fully editable. Begin from a preset — Standard, Fine Pitch, or a JLCPCB profile — or enter your own trace width and clearance. Beginners lean on templates and the AI Board Designer; experienced engineers get the autorouter, DRC engine, and a clean Gerber pipeline.

BRING YOUR OWN AI KEY

The AI Board Designer uses an API key you supply for Claude, GPT-4o, or Gemini, stored only on your device. It returns structured board data — reference designators, nets, dimensions, BOM, and notes — that opens directly in the editor. Every other workspace runs fully offline with no key required.
