Hello, Welcome to the Altium Learning Hub

Have you ever wondered what happens when the DC world of analog power supply design collides with digital loads running at microwave frequencies? It is an explosion of power delivery challenges that have created a new engineering field of Power Integrity. Power Integrity is all about the insatiable demand for information processing that is requiring complex point-of-load power rails to deliver efficient low-noise power to dynamic switching loads...

Using Altium tools to navigate the pitfalls and problems of Component Shortages. ActiveBOM, MFG Part Search, Alternate Components, Part Choice Component Management, Library Health Monitor. Techniques to become Proactive to solve Supply chain problems. Highlights: Overview of electronic part supply chain fundamentals How to design architecture impacts the sourcing of components Tactics for addressing part challenges in current designs Modul...

As many design teams may have experienced, high-speed designs are confronted with many of the signaling and layout challenges seen in high-frequency designs. High-speed interconnect design should take a similar approach seen in high-frequency design with respect to losses, impedance determination, and analysis.  In this technical session, I'll explore some of the correspondences between high-speed PCB design and analysis as they relate to the...

This session will review the benefits of organizing schematic design into a hierarchical top-down or bottom-up structure and the impact schematic directives and PCB planning have on PCB layout. In addition, the session will address the hazards of creating classes in the PCB rather than in the schematic. Highlights: Neat tricks to use in Altium Using schematic directives in Altium design What is a hierarchical design Different ways to set...

Design decisions impact manufacturing costs at all volumes; in this session, we'll cover the tools that the MacroFab platform provides to show the impact of each design decision on the final manufacturing cost for a product at any volume. Highlights: How MacroFab platform was built to help you to save costs in your product manufacturing process Overview of the hardware product development life cycle Importance of time in manufacturing...

Electronics is in everything due to significant technology transformations, electronics is in every part of our lives, and it’s disrupting entire industries. The global growth in Electronic Systems is everywhere, from Autonomous Driving, AD infrastructure, electrification of vehicles, smart devices, smart factories, smart cities, and many more verticals, creating considerable challenges for electronic systems manufacturers in designing quality...

Supply chain disruptions, growing lead times, and ever-changing regulations can ruin a good design.  Finding all of the information to place the right part on your design can be time-consuming.  In this session, you’ll learn of a single place where can get the information that you need.  Manage supply chain risk.  Find alternatives.  Meet regulations.  Design successful products. Highlights: Mitigating risk factors in the design process How...
