A lot has happened since then. Thanks to your feedback, we’ve been able to improve Copilot and add even more capabilities. Now you can use Copilot for brainstorming, selecting components, performing calculations, researching and selecting parts, managing BoM, and even validating designs.
We realize that writing a good prompt can be tricky, so we’ve refreshed our list of popular prompts so you can copy and paste, or modify for your own use!
First, let’s define what a prompt is. Copilot prompts are natural language inputs given to a custom-trained large language model (LLM) specifically designed to understand hardware, electronics circuit, PCB design and layout.
For example, if the prompt is "Calculate the load capacitors for Y1", the model will generate an answer in a human-like manner based on the prompt. Remember, Copilot has the context on what you’re working on. Copilot can see your:
Because Copilot lives inside the PCB design tool, it provides direct feedback, advice, and analysis, and with your approval - it can take action, through a simple chat interface. With just a press of a button, Copilot can connect components together.
