Hello Robert,
Please guide me how can i import Altium PCB project in Cadence PCB Designer for the simulation of DDR3 SDRAM, as you have mentioned in DDR III simulation.

Cadence helped me with the import. Do not expect 100% everything imported correctly. I had to adjust some stuff.

I think, they have two methods:
- one is using ASCII PCB (Export Altium PCB to PCB ASCII and then import it to Cadence)
- the other is using IPC2581 format, but I am not sure if this is available
