Xpedition Viewers

Xpedition Viewers enable secure, streamlined PCB design collaboration, supporting remote reviews, version tracking and efficient issue resolution.

What is the Xpedition Viewer?

Xpedition Viewer is a powerful, cloud-native tool for reviewing and collaborating on printed-circuit-board (PCB) designs across your organization and extended ecosystem without requiring authoring tool licenses. Whether you're using PADS Pro Essentials, Xpedition Standard, or Xpedition Enterprise, Xpedition Viewer ensures everyone from engineering to manufacturing stays aligned. 

Designed for seamless team collaboration with external stakeholders, Xpedition Viewer allows users to visualize schematics and two-dimensional (2D) layouts, measure design features and compare versions from any browser.

Engineers can markup designs, highlight issues and track review comments in context. Guest users can also be invited to participate securely with controlled access and automated notifications. 

The free Community subscription is ideal for light collaboration needs, while the Standard Tier unlocks deeper functionality like schematic/layout cross-probing, full-design version comparison, design markup and 10 gigabytes of secure cloud storage for broader team use.

With coffee in hand, an engineer studies data on a monitor.
