Make PCB analysis easier to review

In PCB development, the analysis itself is only half the job. The real value comes when results are presented clearly enough for the team to act on them. The Extended Design Report in PCB-Investigator helps transform detailed design and inspection results into a structured report, available as an HTML page or in Microsoft Word.

For dense layouts, complex nets, and multiple design checks, result sets can grow quickly. Without proper reporting, important findings are easy to miss. This feature helps engineers turn raw analysis output into a decision-ready overview that is easier to review, discuss, and archive.

More detail, more control

One of the strongest advantages is flexibility. You can generate comprehensive reports with a wide range of analysis results, and decide whether to display everything or focus only on critical areas.

That keeps reports relevant to the task at hand. Whether you are preparing a design review, sharing findings with manufacturing, or documenting QA-related issues, the report stays focused on what matters most.

Less time searching through data. More time making engineering decisions.

Why it matters in day-to-day projects

  • Easy-to-share HTML or Word reports
  • Focused presentation of critical areas when full output is not needed
  • Better traceability of layout and component relationships
  • More efficient design reviews and cross-team communication
  • Clearer documentation for development, manufacturing, and quality

Built for engineering teams

The Extended Design Report is a strong fit for teams that need more than just analysis results. If your process depends on clear documentation and reliable communication, this feature helps present technical findings in a way that supports faster and better decisions.

Try it in your workflow and see how PCB analysis can become a practical communication tool.
