PCB Tracer for reverse engineering and Troubleshooting & Repair

Something to try on: https://pcbtracer.com/

It is possible to draw the pins, power, components other a high quality picture, but there is also an AI function that could be interesting to find components automatically.

Here is a nice YT channel to learning using this tool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fBzjK3RsrAw&list=PL9pyFBJOY-8z-iKa6T6HZMkzY2j7JyZj3&index=1

I’m putting that aside for this week :slight_smile:

If someone has some feedback, let us now here!

Some open-source alternative but less powerful:

This document gives a nice overview of the many features of PCB Tracer. It is much more than a drawing program and is very data-rich. The software creates, reads and writes a number of different files. These include netlists, schematics, pdf datasheets, project files, project history, BOM, and PCB photos. https://pcbtracer.com/PCB_Tracer.html

That thread will deserve more post about it! :slight_smile: I’ll try to keep it on or maybe create another with some nice feature for reverse engineers

Thanks!

Ok, great. BTW, here is a link to the PCB Tracer video tutorials
