Re: Improting Eagle CAD based designs into Allegro,Mentor, or other high end packages?

Dear group

I've done a somewhat complex design with Eagle CAD, but I'm facing
several limits of this software (in terms of simulation to name one
important thing). As a result, I like to upgrate to a more powerfull
package alowing me to simulate complete designs and maybe also having
some better support for laying out big BGAs, lenght matched trace
lenghts etc.

What I'm concerned though is wether I can import my design to an as
high degree as possible or if I have to redo it completly. The latter
would be bad, since there are several months of layout work in it.

I thought to ask here cause you people may already have specific
experience rather than trusting sales drones...

I'm currently mostly after simulating, so some simulation pakage that
could reliably import this Eagle desing would be a potential solution
also.

Any ideas?

TIA

Pulsonix does quite a good job importing Eagle designs and libraries.
It has a good simulator and includes matched trace lengths. The
autorouter is very good, also.
