Open 123 File

The files that have the 123 extension have various uses, of a different nature, some of them below:

Lotus 1-2-3 Spreadsheet

In this section, file extension 123 is a spreadsheet file created by older versions of Lotus 1-2-3, and that format is no longer supported.

Lotus 1-2-3 was one of the first spreadsheet applications available for MS-DOS and on early Windows-based computers.

It became popular in the late 1980s, replacing VisiCalc.

Since Lotus 1-2-3 is no longer available, it indicates that the 123 extension format is no longer available as well.

PCB123 Circuit Board Design

In this section, file 123 is a printed circuit board or PCB layout, created with PCB123, a PCB layout program.

PCB123 is an industrially used electronic board design program developed by Sunstone Circuits.

File 123 contains a circuit board layout, which can include multiple components, and supports 2-, 4-, and 6-layer circuit boards with solder-mask and silk-screen options.

Completed PCB123 designs can be sent to Sunstone Circuits for manufacturing.

Assembly budgets are included in the program.
