Software

Solidworks

Mechatronics, the combination of robotics, electronics, computer, and control systems, has
resulted in a variety of amazing products from smart phones to self-driving cars. In order to
create those products, they need to be digitally modeled and developed. SOLIDWORKS, a solid
modeling computer-aided design and computer-aided engineering program, is one of the most
popular software options for mechatronics engineers.

SOLIDWORKS is used to develop mechatronics systems from beginning to end. At the initial
stage, the software is used for planning, visual ideation, modeling, feasibility assessment,
prototyping, and project management. The software is then used for design and building of
mechanical, electrical, and software elements. Finally, the software can be used for management,
including device management, analytics, data automation, and cloud services.

Proteus

It is a circuit designing software invented by Labcenter Electronics. It used to design different

circuits on PCB (printed circuit board) and simulation of different circuits. The use of proteus for
any electronic circuit project makes that project cost-effective and less errored due to schematic
construction on the proteus.

In 1988 the first version of Proteus known as PCB-B was created by John Jameson who was
chairman of the company. In today’s post, we will have a detailed look at its uses, structure, and
will learn how to make different circuits in Proteus. So let’s get started with Introduction to
Proteus.
