General
A layout is the binding construction plan of a PCB. In TARGET 3001! it can be edited with or without a schematic.
The expressions layout und PCB or PCB view are often used synonymous in TARGET 3001!, because the same module is meant. The layout is edited in the PCB view. For reaching the PCB layout view in TARGET 3001! click this icon: 
This icon appears in any schematic view. You also might use the [F3] key or the [Shift]+[F3] key. A simple PCB layout might look like this:
A TARGET 3001! - layout
By the use of the default settings you see:
the PCB outline (pink),
the soldering pads (footprints, landmarks) of the components (blue),
the padnumbers (black),
the drillholes (brown),
the elements of the copper top side (blue),
the elements of the copper bottom side (red),
the position print with package outlines and component names and values (black)
Features of the PCB mode
- permanent back-annotation to schematic
- component packages in the layout can be edited free at any time
- 2m X 2m (= 78.74In by 78.74 In) board size and schematic size
- air wires continually updated in display to aid placing
- up to 100 layers (copper, solder stop, solder paste, gold etc.)
- any solder pad shapes: circular, octagonal, oblong, etc.
- any width of track, circular track, bezièr-curves, spirals, teardrops and custom padstacks
- configurable autoplacer
- Push and shove: When manually routing, your current track will push away existing traces as far as needed (spacing rules are considered).
- interactive and automatic routing, gridless shape based contour auto router with tconnections (copper sharing) and maintaining of all design rules, single-, double- and multilayer routing, routing of SMDs, of components and of solder pads rotated at any angle
- new hybrid autorouter floating ground planes calculated in real time
- configurable real time design rule check (DRC)
- PCB generation and routing without schematic
- splitting a schematic off the layout
- Gerber file import for further edition (e.g. from other design software programs)
- lots of PCB houses directly accept TARGET *.T3001files
- formats *.tgr (Polar Instruments) and *. dif (digitaltest) supported (E-testing)
- 3D-view on button click
- format *.idf supported (transfer of 3D data to other mechanical CAD systems)
- generation of panels
- generation of testing points
- selection assistant (allows the selection by properties)
- list of the last 20 components used
- automatic PCB enquiries and –orders
- automatic component enquiries and –orders
- new layer tool with advanced layer-set- management
- 3D view
- MID design/layout (dedicated edition)
Assembly Service
- in cooperation with PCB-POOL®
- calculate the assembly of your board
- define where to purchase the parts
- use standard parts from PCB-Pool® stock
- add any own parts for assembly (welcome in a bag)
- automatic assembly from one(!) piece of PCB
