Increase Productivity With Easy Component Creation

Created: September 29, 2022
Updated: November 26, 2023

Designers often view component creation as a "necessary evil." It's something we all have to do at some point. But instead of spending hours creating your components, you can streamline the process. Altium Designer provides a wide range of tools to create different aspects of a component, including symbols, footprints, 3D model parametric data, supply chain details, and more.

Join our webinar to discover how you can:

Create Schematic symbols
Create PCB footprints
Add realistic 3D views to your components
Release components to a workspace
Use the Manufacturers Part Search panel to search, find, and replace existing symbols & footprints
