Hello, Welcome to the Altium Learning Hub

As has been noted in several of my articles and in the PCB design information available to the industry, getting the impedance right is critical for ensuring that a product will operate properly and as designed. What is not so easily understood and can remain a challenge if not appropriately addressed during the product development phase, is the need to have all PCB power rails be of low impedance power supply so that excessive ripple on signals...

Like most events in 2020, Altium is transitioning our annual flagship conference, AltiumLive, to an online experience this year. We will host our North American event from October 6-8, and our European event from October 20-22, 2020. And the best part is...it’s free to attend! While nothing can duplicate the experience of a live event or being physically together, we are busy planning ways to deliver our unique AltiumLive experience in the...

Way back in the summer of 2020, we ran a survey on the Altium Designer home page for a few months. The survey asked Altium Designer users, "How likely are you to recommend Altium Designer to friends and colleagues?" (with ten meaning extremely likely). The vast majority of users responded with 9 and 10.  We were pretty overwhelmed by this positive feedback. Thank you to all who participated.  We want to do more to say thank you to customers who...

The primary source of high-speed problems is not due to high clock frequency but rather the fast rise and fall times of component signals. With fast edge rates, reflections may occur at the receiver side, and when the board routing is dense, crosstalk may become a problem. In this video, you'll sharpen your knowledge and develop new skills that you can use to design High-Speed PCBs more efficiently and effectively. It covers critical concepts...

This 2 hour session will cover the basics for PCB layout including Stackups, shaping the PCB, placement, routing and DRCs.

Access to your design files is critical for the success of your design process. Whether you are working with internal team members, or sharing design files with external vendors, maintaining all of your design data in a single place ensures consistency and accessibility. The problem with local storage is that it difficult to provide access to external stakeholders, and the files can be easily corrupted or lost. Altium 365 provides a secure cloud...

You need to define your PCB geometry in the context of your enclosure. If your board cannot physically be assembled into the final product, it doesn't matter how well laid out it is electrically. This webinar focuses on how the MCAD CoDesigner allows you to edit your PCB in the context of a higher-level assembly, allowing you to respect the relevant mechanical constraints. Topics covered include: Defining the board outline geometry in MCAD...
