• We need three data points to provide a quick Quote: • # of Components: The total number of electrical parts contained in your design. For example, if you have 10 of the same resistors, 5 capacitors, and 2 ICs, your project would have 17 components. • # of Nets: The number of unique electrical connections between devices / components. • # of Nodes: The number of used pins / connection points in your design. For example, a pass-thru design with two 20-pin connectors would have 40 nodes.
