you can do this with the Freerouting plugin
it's non-trivial, you need to fiddle with parameters to encourage the autoroute towards certain behaviors. there are also some schematic patterns that lend towards better netlists and in turn better routing
- fxtentacle 3y agoIn general, yes, but when I tried it, all free autorouters (and the paid one in Altium) failed to do the fan-out/escape of the ESP32's BGA. I then built a little CLI tool which used bitmap images and ConvNets to do just that one fan-out, but then I lost interest in it as soon as the PCB was finished.
- ranger_danger 3y agoI really wonder why autorouters are so bad/slow still, I at least understand the high level concept of what it should be able to do, and I would think that with enough input parameters, this shouldn't be that hard of a problem to solve, especially with how easy it is to deploy tasks across lots of powerful machines for (relatively) cheap these days.
