InteractiveHtmlBom
InteractiveHtmlBom is a PCB design tool plugin that generates a web-based interactive bill of materials. It functions as a component cross-referencer and electrical net visualizer, linking component list entries to their physical positions on a printed circuit board layout.
The tool creates a standalone HTML page that enables bidirectional highlighting between a component list and a board visualization. It includes capabilities for electrical net visualization, allowing users to highlight connected tracks and zones to trace electrical paths.
The system supports BOM data customization through the import of netlists or XML files to define custom columns and groupings. These features facilitate PCB assembly verification, design review, and netlist visualization.
Features
- Component Cross-Referencing - Links component entries in the BOM list to their physical positions on the board for faster identification.
