Watch Video 41:29 You Design & You Manufacture: Additive Manufacturing of Complex Multilayer Circuits This is an era where product life cycles are shrinking and demands on PCB designers are relentless. The need for speed is clear and additive manufacturing now allows for rapid in-house iteration in complete secrecy. This session will describe the technical aspects of how 3D printing and additive manufacturing is migrating to the world of electronics and what it means for designers. Learn about the wide range of applications and real-world use Watch Video 50:46 Digital Standards and Samples for Rigid-Flex Technology Rigid-flex technology offers some unique advantages for high reliability applications in miniaturized systems. But getting started can be difficult and the variants and possibilities are diverse. Because of this, standardization is mandatory to meet quality and cost which starts not in production, but with the design. This presentation will demonstrate how rigid-flex design can be achieved in Altium Designer, while also showcasing some nice Watch Video 45:14 Enabling Cohesive ECAD/MCAD Collaboration Learn about enabling ECAD / MCAD collaboration and see how you can improve your design teams today.

Watch Video 41:54 FPGA Guidelines for Efficient Design and Verification Developing hardware that involves an FPGA requires work in both an FPGA environment and a PCB design tool. They are separate environments, but require close interaction. In this interaction there are different approaches and strategies possible. In my presentation I will outline different approaches, peculiarities of FPGA systems, useful naming conventions and explain why keeping a strict relationship between names on the FPGA and PCB will save Watch Video 48:57 High-Speed Board Design Rules to Get Your PCB Designed Right the First Time Understanding the principles of signal/power integrity and EMI by the electronic engineer is necessary, but unfortunately our experience does not guarantee the successful functioning of the system. Converting the principles into quantities built by the PCB layout designer will bring us closer to this goal. This lecture will cover 10 critical issues regarding the return current path and bypass capacitors roles, cross talk by coupling, Faraday Watch Video 1:22:57 PCB Design vs. Product Design: Unleashing the Power of Effective Multi-Board Design Sign up to pre-register for AltiumLive next year or try Altium Designer today. Watch Video PCB Design Process Concepts Have you ever seen a architectural masterpiece like the Golden Gate bridge or maybe an historic building like the Paris’ Notre Dame Cathedral? Then wondered how they came up with that idea and how they executed? A few words come to mind: Planning, planning and adjusting. PCB and SOC Package Design is sort of like that, meaning it is truly a puzzle of parts, circuit interfaces, power planes, thousands of signals, via transitions and many design Read Article 1:24:46 Day2_Bangkok_CreedenMitchell Watch Video Weekly Digest: Altium at IPC Apex Expo Week in Review In this article, we’re rounding up and collecting everything we’ve published this week for our readers.

Watch Video How to Find Equivalent ICs in Your PCB When I was younger, I would routinely open up old or broken electronics just to see how they worked. I didn’t start to understand how they worked until I was older, but I always marvelled at the mass of components and the complexity with which they were laid out on a circuit board. I would even have fun connecting from different devices in the hopes that I could resurrect a broken device. ICs in your PCB have a number of specifications that must Read Article PCB Manufacturing Tolerances: Adding Fabrication Tolerance Options to Your Manufacturer Deliverables Much as we would like, no manufacturing process is perfect. Every process produces slight errors in part sizes or placement, and PCBs are no different. Since some PCB applications have very tight tolerances, you’ll need to specify your tolerance requirements for your manufacturer. Let alone maintaining secure understandings of solder mask and solder placement, material thickness specifications, or any surface mount components - designating your Read Article How Integrated PCB Design Software Helps you Manage Documentation and Outputs If you’re like me, then you’re a hardware fanatic. You’re the type that enjoys creating and watching your ideas come to life before your eyes. The last thing you want to do is sit behind a desk and create change orders, bills of materials, and assembly plans for your new product. What if there was a way to cut down the time required to generate these important documents? With deliverables and documentation requiring standardized formats and Read Article SMART System for Data Management I have seen it, and perhaps you have too, where excessive design problems and too many re-spins of a PCB design can be attributed to just one thing; improper data management. I worked with a company once that considered half a dozen board spins acceptable just to iron out all the library problems. These kinds of problems can be greatly reduced and even eliminated with careful data management. The SMART system spells out a data management process Read Article 43:17 Professional Library Management Watch Video 31:18 Altium Designer Productivity: Jump Start your Altium Designer Projects Creating a new PCB project in Altium Designer can be quite a bit of work, especially if you want all the bells and whistles on it. The same goes for the production of CAM data at the end of the project. In this presentation, Casper dives deep into this matter and explores several strategies for setting up a coherent system of templates, libraries, design rules, output jobs, etc. that will help you jump start new designs and race to production.
