Hello, Welcome to the Altium Learning Hub

If you look in datasheets for most components, you’ll often find a recommended land pattern, usually alongside some mechanical package information and assembly information. This is not always the case with BGA components, especially components with high ball count. There are a few reasons for this that we can speculate: those ball counts might just be too big to put into a single page, or the manufacturer just expects you to know how to create...

Every design has specific characteristics. You must consider the “care-about” and “what-ifs” of your circuit to achieve a high-performing, functional product. By quickly applying mathematical functions, or defining measurements from your waveforms, you can determine how to further enhance your circuit performance. Join our webinar this month and see for yourself how the advanced simulation analysis tools in Altium Designer can make your design...

There’s one area of PCB design that hasn’t received enough attention: molded interconnect devices, or MIDs. These devices are essentially plastic molded substrates with traces running along any surface, including at right angles and running vertically. I’ve never designed these myself, but they are certainly impressive from a design and manufacturing standpoint. According to an article in Plastics Technology, MIDs were supposed to make a...
