42 How to create a new multi-board project Every new product starts with project creation and multi-board designs are no different. Multi-board projects provide a space to organize individual board design files to keep track of everything your product needs. Learn how to keep your multi-board designs organized so you can focus on define board interconnections and assembly form and fit. Watch Video 56 How to Create an Object in SmartMates You don't have to struggle with enclosure form and fit when you can position boards in real time. Learn how to get the perfect fit and position of boards, connectors, and enclosures. Object smart mates ensure that individual designs can operate as a single functional object inside your entire assembly. Watch Video Semi-Additive Process Technology at Averatek In this podcast episode learn about Averatek and their semi-additive process technology for circuit board manufacture and how very precise and very small circuits can benefit your design. Watch here. Read Article Running on Any Device: Does It Matter? Does your device matter? That might seem like a strange question for a design post. However, it is increasingly becoming an important one. We’re in the midst of some pretty significant changes both technologically and culturally in engineering but also the workplace in general. So dig into this post. You might find it more relevant than you initially thought. This post looks at how engineering work is changing and the implications of ECAD running Read Article Interplane Capacitance and PCB Stackups This article is intended to provide insights on interplane capacitance and guidance for the process of designing PCB stackups. It is useful to look at the evolution of technology as time has passed in order to see how the demands on the PCB stackup have changed. In the early days of PCB fabrication, logic circuits were so slow that the only concerns were how to make connections between logic or discrete parts and provide a path for the DC power Read Article Weekly Digest: Articles, Podcast and Videos from Altium We’ve collected everything published this week to bring our readers resources to read, watch and listen to all in one place. On the Podcast we introduced a new format so we can invite engineer Ben Jordan on the show more often to take questions from the audience. We also have new articles on the blog and several new videos all about Altium 365. This OnTrack Podcast with Judy Warner This week on the OnTrack Podcast, Judy Warner and Ben Jordan Read Article Altium Designer 19 Board Layout Feature Set To learn more about this topic please see the full solution - Altium Designer 19 Board Layout Feature - at Altium.com.

Read Article Channel Operating Margin Isn’t So Bad What is a COM anyway? Channel Operating Margin, or COM, isn’t well understood. Since it isn’t well understood, many people doubt it really means anything. After all, how can channel quality be represented by just one number in decibels? It turns out, COM is actually the latest evolutionary step in a long progression of channel validation techniques using eye patterns. This blog will trace the evolution of COM back to its roots and put meaning to Read Article End-to-End Tracking of Your PCB Design Have you ever run a board re-spin only to discover you’re not even sure what the changes were? I’m not talking about comparing GERBERs from Rev A to Rev B, rather I am referring to understanding the requirements that drove the changes, the reason behind the changes, and all the dialog that was happening around the changes. For most of us we capture these details via email, commit history in our version control system (e.g. Subversion, Perforce Read Article 35:34 New Experiences of Part and Library Component Search Watch Video 48:19 From Zero to Gerber in 45 Minutes Watch Video Am I Big Enough for Data Management? If we have only one or two EEs, do we really need data management? Data management systems for electronics design brings value to small businesses and individual design contractors. Learn more.

This week we have two new articles from thought leaders that we think you’ll like. Take a look and join the conversation on social media or in the comments section of the articles listed below. Articles on the PCB Design Blog For the avid reader, there’s never a shortage of informative articles on our PCB Design Blog. Check Read Article Wind Tunnel Race Car Models Custom Prototype Devices Design: Altium as Improvement Tool to Gain Efficiency Read Article Board Verification and Analysis: Comparing the Desktop and the Cloud Respins are a killer. They’re costly, both from a time and money perspective. Run through two or three, and you’re very likely to miss design release. If you have long-lead time test facilities and equipment involved, you’re pretty much guaranteed to throw the entire development project off schedule. All that is why many engineering teams are increasingly turning to verification and analysis. If you can virtually check rules and simulate Read Article Top 8 Flexible Circuit Advantages Early in my career, someone told me that flex circuit applications are really only limited by our imagination. I pondered that for a while, and I couldn’t agree more. Most of these “aha” moments happen when we are passing around a bunch of different samples, and a particular shape or level of flexibility sparks a new idea. One of the favorite parts of my job is the magical moment when I am working with a designer or group of engineers trying to Read Article Pagination First page « First Previous page ‹‹ Page116 Current page117 Page118 Page119 Page120 Page121 Next page ›› Last page Last » Load More
