THEDA consists of software modules for schematic design, verification and physical placement and routing of PCBs and Hybrids. All THEDA modules are integrated into the INCASES Design Desk

Although INCASES was only founded in 1994, the INCASES team can look back on many years of experience with EDA products. INCASES has combined the product THEDA, which was previously developed under Computervision management, and the EMC-Workbench, which was developed in CADLAB.

THEDA provides a seamlessly integrated design environment for all PCB and Hybrid design needs. The INCASES Design Desk integrates THEDA modules for schematic design, verification and simulation, board layout, panalization, and creation of data for postprocessing machines.
