The electronics industry is constantly changing, especially when it comes to the supply chain. Components are constantly going out of stock or have ridiculous lead times making them non viable as a design option. These problems are ones we face everyday, but they don’t just affect the design that is currently being worked on, they affect all designs, even completed ones. Projects today rely on the instability of the components market but with Altium Designer you can bring stability back to your team.

It's no secret that software developers often use completed code fragments from other projects for quick and predictable results. The same can be done for PCB Design, there is no need to spend time rewiring schematics or laying out components on boards you’ve done before. Join us this webinar where we’ll go over how you can use your existing designs to create reusable design blocks, speeding up the design cycle for your future projects.
How Project Templates can Improve Your Design Flow
February 17, 2022
12:00 - 12:30 pm CET
11:00 - 11:30 am GMT
Audience:
Both Users and Non Users
of Altium Designer
With each use of Altium Designer, each of us develops a certain approach to creating and working with our PCB projects. But effective work, especially in a team, requires a certain design culture that unifies many aspects of development. The webinar will explore some of the capabilities of Altium Designer to automate and maintain an efficient design culture.
Understanding the PCB Fabrication Process
January 20, 2022
12:00 - 12:30 pm CET
11:00 - 11:30 am GMT
Audience:
Both Users and Non Users
of Altium Designer
You're done designing? Great! Now it's time to get your board fabricated. This webinar will discuss the process of getting your board fabricated, how to work with your manufacturer, and potential problems you might face.
Impedance Calculations for Transmission Lines
November 18
2:00 PM CET
1:00 PM GMT
Audience:
Both Users and Non Users
of Altium Designer
Today’s PCBs contain many transmission lines. Combine this with increased clock frequencies and data rates and the result is a critical challenge to high-speed design. Neglecting these dynamics can undermine product development by compromising performance, power consumption, EMC/EMI compliance, and more - leading to delayed design cycles and opening gaps that can be exploited by your competition.
Hone your high-speed design skills by joining us as we discuss the typical transmission lines encountered in today’s designs, the PCB variables that affect impedance, as well as how to create, calculate, and design transmission lines in Altium Designer. Learn how to maximize the built-in SIMBEOR® engine by Simberian to craft impedance profiles and manage transmission lines in your designs.
Mastering The Layer Stack Manager
November 24
12:00 PM CET
11:00 AM GMT
Audience:
Both Users and Non Users
of Altium Designer
What most people don’t seem to grasp is that every aspect of the PCB is critical. It all plays a significant part in the operation of the final product. The layer stack is no different. We need to keep in mind materials and the intricacies therein, including thickness, weave, dielectric constants, and more.
A proper layer stack is needed for each and every design, so it's important to know how to navigate the layer stack manager and all of its features. By mastering the layer stack manager you can quickly create a new stackup from existing templates, swap out approved materials with the materials library, and more. Join us for this webinar to learn how you can take control of your stackup.
Configuring and Resolving Design Rules
June 24
12:00 PM CEST
11:00 AM BST
Audience:
Both Users and Non Users
of Altium Designer
Design rules are there to help you design your board, but what’s there to help you design your rules? Without proper creation, design rules are useless. This makes board creation and accurate verification almost impossible. The upgraded design rule editor in Altium Designer allows you to validate your rules, checking for conflicts and usability issues. After you have a valid rule set you can begin to design and debug your board; which Altium Designer can assist you with as well.
