Hello,
Welcome to the Altium Learning Hub

Altium Develop provides a workspace where users can manage projects, component data, and design activities. Initial setup typically involves activating the workspace, connecting Altium Designer, and becoming familiar with the browser-based interface. The tutorials below walk through each of these steps in the order most new users will encounter them.01 - Activate a Workspace in an Altium Develop Account:  This storylane guides account...

Altium Agile Teams provides a shared cloud workspace where engineering teams can manage projects, component data, workspace members, and collaborative design activities. Initial setup typically involves activating the workspace, connecting Altium Designer, becoming familiar with the browser-based interface, and configuring user access. The tutorials below walk through each of these steps in the order most new teams will encounter them. 01 -...

The first article in this series, 6G Has a Date Now – Your RF Front End Has a Deadline, shows that new spectrum near 7 GHz will call for new RF front ends. The RF power supplier base these designs will depend on is changing. NXP is winding down its Radio Power product line and closing its ECHO gallium nitride (GaN) fab in Chandler, Arizona.Designs that still use NXP RF power parts now need qualified alternates from other suppliers. This article...

Nearly two-thirds of electronics manufacturers report limited component and material availability or extended lead times. Importantly, none describe current conditions as readily available with excess supply, underscoring that supply risk remains widespread. That risk shows up one part at a time. A part quietly discontinued, a distributor suddenly out of stock, a price that jumped without warning. BOMs are full of surprises that derail a build...

An end-of-life notice can look small. It names one part, one supplier, and one date. The engineering impact can be much larger. The same regulator, memory device, connector, or sensor may sit in twelve PCB projects, several product variants, old release packages, and one new design that has not reached prototype yet.Most teams can find the part in the BOM they are looking at. The hard task is finding every other place where it is used. People...

Making an ASIC the traditional way is no easy task, but now designers can take control of their component designs with programmable logic. There are three options for designing ASICs: CPLDs, FPGAs, or mixed-signal processors. These three approaches allow a designer to essentially create a custom processor which can even be programmed on the fly. If none of the available off-the-shelf component options work for your system, which type of...

PCB design and assembly standards aren’t there to constrain your productivity. Instead, they’re there to help create uniform expectations of product designs and performance across multiple industries. With standardization comes the tools for compliance, such as calculators for certain design aspects, processes for auditing and inspection, and much more. In high voltage PCB design, the important generic standard for PCB design is IPC-2221. Many...

When it comes to programmable analog electronics, there aren't a lot of compact options. Analog programmable electronics have always required some sort of digital host running firmware and accepting user commands. The circuitry that makes up the analog portion of the system is almost always built from discrete components, making compact form factors very difficult. For analog ASICs, reprogrammability typically comes through externally connected...
