SUBSTRATE DESIGN DATA GENERATION SUPPORT APPARATUS, SUBSTRATE DESIGN DATA GENERATION SUPPORT METHOD, SUBSTRATE DESIGN DATA GENERATION SUPPORT PROGRAM, RECORDING MEDIUM, AND SUBSTRATE DESIGN SYSTEM

To solve a problem in which a large number of pieces of dummy registration information need to be registered in registration database means in advance, it takes time to register the large number of pieces of dummy registration information, and a work of selecting one piece of dummy registration information from the large number of pieces of dummy registration information is complicated and takes time.SOLUTION: A substrate design data generation support apparatus (30) includes a rule storage unit (31) that stores a setting rule including at least a setting region for an electronic component according to a terminal number of the electronic component and a distance between the terminals, a model generation unit (32a) that reads the setting rule of the electronic component according to the terminal number of a mounting electronic component mounted on a substrate from the rule storage unit (31) and generates virtual component model information indicating the setting region and arrangement positions of the terminals based on the setting rule of the read electronic component, and a change model generation unit (32b) that generates change virtual component model information in which the setting region and the arrangement positions of the terminals of the virtual component model information generated by the model generation unit (32a) are changed based on change information indicating the change of the setting region of the virtual component model information.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】登録データベース手段に、事前に多数のダミー登録情報を登録する必要があり、多数のダミー登録情報の登録に時間を要し、かつ、多数のダミー登録情報の中から１つのダミー登録情報を選ぶ作業が煩雑であり、時間を要する。【解決手段】基板設計データ作成支援装置（３０）は、電子部品の端子数に応じた当該電子部品に対する設定領域及び端子間の距離を少なくとも含む設定ルールを記憶するルール記憶部（３１）と、基板に実装される実装用電子部品の端子数に応じた電子部品の設定ルールをルール記憶部（３１）から読み出し、当該読みだした電子部品の設定ルールに基づいた、設定領域及び端子の配置位置を示す仮想部品モデル情報を生成するモデル生成部（３２ａ）と、仮想部品モデル情報の設定領域の変更を示す変更情報に基づいて、モデル生成部（３２ａ）により生成された仮想部品モデル情報の設定領域及び端子の配置位置を変更した変更仮想部品モデル情報を生成する変更モデル生成部（３２ｂ）を備える。【選択図】図１
