Free Viewer for Allegro 16.6 files

andpasqas 2 months ago

Hello,

we are in the need to open with the Free Viewer some project files supplied by an external consultant.

These files are:

- Allegro v16.6 and v17.4 PCB .brd files

- Orcad CIS v17.2 schematic .dsn files

We tried to install Allegro X 24.1 Free Viewer, but it can't open 16.6 files.

An error about the need of a DBDoctor tool raises, but we don't have that tool.

Not sure of what free viewer is needed for schematic files.

Could you please supply Allegro Free Viewer for version v16.6?

Could you supply a link to download a Free Viewer for Orcad CIS 17.2?

Thanks

Andrea

No.

DBDoctor is not part of the Free Viewer installation, only of complete licensed software.

There are several discussions about this in the forum.

The feasible solution seems to install the older 16.6 free viewer.

Could you provide a download link?

Thanks
