Does Quilter run simulations to validate its designs?

Quilter validates layouts using built-in Physics Rule Checks (PRCs), with increasingly advanced simulations planned.

Updated this week

Yes—Quilter currently validates generated layouts using built-in Physics Rule Checks (PRCs), which verify critical electrical constraints like impedance control, differential pair matching, length constraints, and high-current routing.

Most Physics Rule Checks (PRCs) are geometric, offering validations that follow best practices used by experienced layout engineers when designing a board (e.g., "three widths rule").

Full end-to-end simulations (such as signal integrity, power integrity, EMI/EMC, thermal) are not yet fully integrated but are in development and a key part of Quilter’s future plans. Currently, Quilter focuses on generating quick prototypes, allowing users to perform rapid physical testing and validation.

Over time, Quilter plans to incorporate advanced physics simulations directly into the layout generation loop, further enhancing design accuracy and performance.
