Altium Designer is one of the most popular and frequently used CAD software for schematic design and PCB Layout. If you are planning to become a professional hardware design engineer, if you are moving to Altium Designer from different software or if you have never designed any board before and you would like to learn it, this course will help you.

Go through complete design process of a simple board and learn

– Draw schematic
– Create schematic symbol and footprint libraries
– Route your PCB and do layout
– Generate the essential documents needed to manufacture your PCB

Goal of this course

The main goal of this course is to go through a complete board design process (Schematic + Libraries + PCB + Documentation), and this way to show, demonstrate and practice all the essential Altium Designer features which are also used to create more complex and advanced boards.

Content and Overview

You will start with creating schematic symbols. After all symbols are finished, you will learn how to draw schematic, modify it, how to update your schematic symbol library and how to create footprints. You will learn how to transfer your schematic into PCB, how to do layout and by the end of the course you will generate all the essential manufacturing documents.

In this course you will learn how to:

– Draw schematic, update schematic and annotate schematic
– Create components, draw schematic symbols and footprints
– Place components into your PCB
– Route simple PCB
– Create 3D model of your board
– Create board variants with different components fitted / not fitted
– Create Bill of Material (BOM)
– Create assembly drawings showing position of components on the board
– Generate Gerbers, Pick and Place, Drill file and other files needed for manufacturing
