2 SYNOPSIS About OrCAD Advantages of OrCAD Disadvantages of OrCAD
About lab view Advantages of lab view Disadvantages of lab view summary

3 OrCAD is a proprietary software tool suite used primarily for electronic design automation. The software is used mainly to create electronic prints for manufacturing of printed circuit boards, by electronic design engineers and electronic technicians to manufacture electronic schematics and diagrams, and for their simulation.

4 The name OrCAD is a portmanteau, reflecting the software's origins: Oregon + CAD. The Or CAD product line is fully owned by Cadence Design Systems. The latest iteration has the ability to maintain a database of available integrated circuits. This database may be updated by the user by downloading packages from component manufacturers, such as Analog Devices or Texas Instruments.

5 ADVANTAGES OF OrCAD In reality to carry out some experiments, it may be too expensive but it is very easy and cheap to do the same in OrCAD It consumes less time to design even complicated circuits The circuit to be designed can be too small or too big Simulation often goes hand in hand with visualization this helps us to view the changes in the result directly on the screen It saves time, less effort is needed

6 DISADVANTAGES OF OrCAD
Malfunction of a single variable, leads to the loss of reality of the system. Simulation program may function well in technical point of view, but they don’t fit into the curriculum Cannot react to unexpected sub-goals A simulation program cannot develop during a learning process

7 Lab VIEW (short for  Laboratory Virtual Instrumentation Engineering Workbench) is a platform and development environment for a visual programming language from National Instruments. The graphical language is named "G". Originally released for the Apple Macintosh in 1986,

8 Lab VIEW is commonly used for data acquisition, instrument control, and industrial automation on a variety of platforms including Microsoft Windows, various flavors of UNIX, Linux, and Mac OS. The latest version of Lab VIEW is version 8.6, released in August of 2008.

9 BENEFITS OF LAB VIEW It provides extensive support for accessing instrumentation hardware. These present themselves as graphical nodes The run-time engine reduces compile time and also provides a consistent interface to various operating systems, graphic systems, hardware components, etc. The run-time environment makes the code portable across platforms Lab VIEW includes a text-based programming component called Math Script with additional functionality for signal processing, analysis and mathematics.

10 Many libraries with a large number of functions for data acquisition, signal generation, mathematics, statistics, signal conditioning, analysis, etc., along with numerous graphical interface elements are provided in several Lab VIEW package options. The Lab VIEW Professional Development System allows creating stand-alone executables and the resultant executable can be distributed an unlimited number of times. The run-time engine and its libraries can be provided freely along with the executable. There is a low cost Lab VIEW Student Edition aimed at educational institutions for learning purposes. There is also an active community of Lab VIEW users who communicate through several groups and Internet forums.

11 DRAWBACKS OF LAB VIEW All Lab VIEW installations require customers to contact National Instruments by Internet or phone to "activate" the product. The increasing dependence on the vendor suggests a possible threat to privacy and data security. Building a stand-alone application with Lab VIEW requires the Application Builder component which is included with the Professional Development System but requires a separate purchase if using the Base Package or Full Development System. The runtime required for Lab VIEW is not supplied with any operating system and is required to be specifically installed by the administrator or user. This requirement can cause problems if an application is distributed to a user who may be prepared to run the application but does not have the inclination or permission to install additional files on the host system prior to running the executable.

12 summary LAB VIEW OrCAD For visual programming
Product of National Instruments Used for instrument control, industrial automation Latest version is LAB VIEW 8.6 OrCAD For printed circuit boards Owned by CADENCE Design systems Ability to maintain a database of available integrated circuits Latest version OrCAD 16.2
