TestSight CAD Compare™ is a powerful tool for analyzing your circuit board(s) and providing long term, life-cycle support of your fixture. It combines the functions of Revision Management, DFT Analysis and BOM Compare into a single, cost effective package.

TestSight CAD Compare quickly determines the differences between Computer Aided Design (CAD) to CAD, CAD to Fixture, and Bill of Materials (BOM) to BOM data sets. With TestSight CAD Compare, you can easily view differences in new CAD revisions with an existing fixture in order to determine the changes necessary to re-use the existing fixture.

The compare process involves (1) loading the Fixture files, (2) loading the new CAD file being considered for use on the existing fixture, and (3) using the drill down tree views and the graphics (ViewPort) overlay views to quickly determine the changes in the new CAD file, and how those changes affect the existing fixture.
