CAD automation for semiconductor test fixture design

TestFixtureCAD builds AutoCAD tools that turn hours of repetitive probe-card, probe-pin and test-socket plate work — micro-hole layout, clearance checks, DUT arrays, pin numbering — into a few clicks. It runs inside the AutoCAD you already use, on the drawings you already have.

APD — Auto PogoPin Designer

Automated pogo-pin layout for test sockets and fixtures — [one-line description of what APD does: e.g. places and routes pogo pins from a pad map, checks pitch and keep-out, generates the drill / counterbore plates].

Why TestFixtureCAD

Built for this work, not adapted to it

Made by engineers who do it

Developed by Younglim CNS for a probe-card / test-socket R&D team and used in production — then turned into a product. It does the steps you actually repeat.

Runs inside AutoCAD

Drives AutoCAD through COM automation — no new file format, no migration. Open your drawing, run the tool. [Note supported AutoCAD versions / BricsCAD · ZWCAD status here.]

Configurable per customer

Layer names, default hole sizes, Excel column mappings, clearance rules, DUT defaults, output formats — all settings profiles, not hardcoded. Your conventions, not ours.
