by Steven LeibsonCommercial EDA companies started to appear in the 1960s, and a trend of sorts was set. In each new, more advanced generation of EDA tools, three companies tended to dominate. The first EDA generation was the era of digitization. Computers and digitizers started to displace drafting tables and mechanical drafting machines in all engineering disciplines including electrical and electronic engineering. The dominant EDA trio in this CAD (Computer Aided Design or Computer Aided Drafting) era consisted of Calma, Computervision, and Applicon.Before delving into the history of these three pioneering companies, it’s important that you understand the state of electronic design back in the early 1960s. You have no doubt seen photographs of large engineering bullpens filled with drafting tables and mechanical drafting machines
