We make tools to design electronics circuit boards with code
atopile is a new language to design electronic circuit boards with code. We replace point and click graphical interfaces with code to bring software level automation and reuse to the field of hardware design. Our project is open source on GitHub! https://github.com/atopile/atopile
atopile provides tools that bring software development workflows to hardware design, enabling modularity, version control, and deep validation for electronic circuit boards. The focus is on accelerating circuit board design through code-driven workflows.
The product enables electronic circuit board design by applying software-like workflows to hardware design. It emphasizes modular components, version control, and validation processes to streamline design, integration, and testing of circuit boards, allowing engineers to manage hardware design artifacts with code-based methodologies.
Who it’s for: Hardware design teams and engineers building electronic circuit boards, who want software-style workflows for design, validation, and collaboration.
If something sucks, fix it. I love building tools that solve real problems, at Tesla I increased the rate at which we could build prototypes by 10x, at our company atopile we are making tools to bring the speed of software development to hardware engineering.
We are bringing design reuse, version control, and automation to hardware design
atopile is a new programming language and toolchain that designs electronic circuit boards with code, enabling design reuse, version control, and automation by compiling atopile source into manufacturing files. It targets hardware engineers and teams seeking faster, more reliable hardware development using software-like workflows.
