Import Gerber, ODB++, Allegro .brd, .mcm files for PCB boards and IC packages. Inspect nets, layers, shapes, and stackups. TRIGGER: user asks to import, read, or open a PCB layout file. Gerber files use gerberRead or PCBReader; ODB++, Allegro .brd, .mcm, and native formats use pcbFileRead. Also when inspecting nets, layers, components, or stackups from an imported board. Invoke BEFORE writing import code — the query API (cadnet, cadnetList, componentList) is specialized. SKIP: EM analysis or S-parameter extraction (use matlab-analyze-em), PDN/IR-drop analysis (use matlab-analyze-pcb-pdn), building custom geometry (use matlab-assemble-pcb-layout), material/stackup definition only (use matlab-manage-pcb-material).

PDN DC voltage/current analysis, IR drop, design rule checking, and multi-net batch analysis on imported PCB layouts. TRIGGER: user asks about power integrity, PDN analysis, IR drop, voltage distribution, current density, power nets, or design rule checking on a PCB. Invoke BEFORE writing code — the PDN API chain is specialized and non-obvious. SKIP: importing a PCB file (use matlab-read-pcb-layout), EM field/S-parameter extraction (use matlab-analyze-em), material/stackup setup only (use matlab-manage-pcb-material), transmission line design (use matlab-design-pcb-transmission-line).
