Ultiboard is printed circuit board design and layout software that integrates seamlessly with Multisim to accelerate PCB prototype development. Ultiboard software offers efficient PCB design layout and routing with a customizable environment. You can use its flexible tools to place parts and copper with manual precision to define critical board elements. With its automated functionality, you can quickly complete a design. The advanced spreadsheet view, toolbox, and design wizards help you easily manage, control, and define any board layout. Seamless integration with Multisim software provides simple schematic transfer to PCB, and forward and backward annotation ensures design iteration management. You can easily export industry-standard file formats such as Gerber and DXF to complete the design flow from schematic to layout

Muhammad Hassan J.
Advanced user of UltiboardWhat do you like best?
Most of the PCB design softwares are more complex for beginners. The best thing about Ni Ultiboard is its simplicity. It is as simple as beginners can use it easily. At the same time, they can design complex PCB circuits. We can manually manipulate copper layers of the circuit. we can manually change or create footprints for existing or new components that we add to our design. We can also add new packages to Ni Ultiboard. One more thing that I like most is its ability to transfer our design form Ni Ultiboard to Ni Multisim in order to check our design response.
What do you dislike?
One of the downsides of NI Ultiboard is its incomplete circuit wiring during auto-routing. When we use auto-route, I have experienced that mostly it completes up to 85 to 90%. Sometimes it performs an excellent job during auto-routing and generates its 100%. One more thing that the software should have to do, as soon as we complete our design there should be an option which shows total power losses that occur in our PCB design with respect to a specified current, a specified copper layer thickness.

One should have to try it.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I am designing printed circuit boards (PCB) for my projects. Currently, I am working on multilevel inverter design with SiC MOSFETs, Home Automation. I use Ni Ultiboard because it is easy to use, has precise dimensions, has 3D preview for our designed circuits. We can also transfer our project form Ni Ultiborad to Ni Multisim and vice versa.
