Manufacturing layers
Copper and non-copper layer roles, conductive features, drilled holes, slots and board profiles.
One intelligent PCB exchange file
IPC-2581 PCB viewer and editor for iPhone and iPad
Open the manufacturing and assembly data contained in an IPC-2581 file as a structured board with searchable layers, components and logical nets.
.cvg.xml
From IPC-2581 XML to an interactive board
AGBoard reconstructs supported IPC-2581 stackup layers, pads, traces, arcs, filled features, drills, routed slots, components, packages and logical nets.
The result uses the same touch-first workspace as other AGBoard projects, with per-layer visibility and GPU-accelerated navigation.
What AGBoard reads
Components
Component references, packages, placement side and rotations when included in the IPC-2581 data.
Logical nets
Search a net name and highlight the supported pads and conductive features assigned to it.
What you can do
- Inspect each IPC-2581 layer independently
- Search components, packages and logical nets
- Measure copper, pad, hole and profile geometry
- View the reconstructed board and components in 3D
- Edit and transform compatible board geometry
- Save compatible data to IPC-2581 or export visual and CSV reports
Inspect on iPhone and iPad
The same touch-first tools stay available from a phone or a larger iPad workspace.
Frequently asked questions
Which IPC format does this page cover?
This viewer covers IPC-2581 design exchange files, commonly delivered as .cvg or .xml.
Can I search IPC-2581 components and nets?
Yes, when the source file contains supported component, package and logical net data.
Is the XML sent to a conversion service?
No. The IPC-2581 file is parsed and rendered locally on the device.
