Ever lost valuable time because a component wasn’t connected the way you expected?
With Component Connection Analysis, you instantly see what’s really going on.
If you handle complex layouts, sensitive nets, or EMC‑critical designs, you know one thing for sure:
Reliable, pin‑level connection insight is essential.
This is exactly where Component Connection Analysis in PCB‑Investigator excels. It provides a comprehensive, per‑pin electrical overview of any selected component, including:
- Net names and total net lengths
- Automatic detection of the first capacitor in each net (crucial for EMC considerations)
- Precise distance measurement between connector pins and filter capacitors
- Clear indication whether a capacitor is truly the first component (“Direct Connect”)
- Instant net visualization in the main window via simple double‑click
- Easy export of all results into Excel or text for documentation and reviews
Especially for EMC analysis, this tool is a game changer — for example, verifying whether a capacitor is placed close enough to a connector to effectively filter disturbances. The tool tells you if and how far.
In short:
You get a fast, reliable, visualization‑supported workflow to understand critical connections and detect potential EMC issues early.
