Description

Design a board in 15 hours. Step-by-Step tutorial based on Arduino project (Altium)

What You'll Learn?

After this course, you will design your own Arduino like board.

Who is this for?

College / University students: During this course you will learn how to work in Altium Designer. Altium is one of the most used software in companies which are designing electronic boards or products. Knowing how to work in Altium can give you an advantage when applying for a job. As a college / university student, you may be able to get a free license of Altium Designer.

Junior / Senior hardware design engineers: During this course you will go through complete process of designing an electronic board. You will learn all the steps exactly the way as they are done in a professional company. After this course you will know everything essential to use Altium Designer in your job. This course can be very useful when you are starting with Altium Designer or when you are moving to Altium Designer from a different CAD system.

Beginners, Hobbyists: If you build your own electronic circuits using wires or breadboards and you have ever wanted to transfer your circuits into a real board or real product, this course can help you. During this course you will learn how you can design your own boards.

What You Need to Know?

You will need Altium Designer software. If you are a college / university student, ask Altium for a student license. In many countries the student license is free.

More details

Description
Learning a basic board design is essential for everyone who would like to work in electronics or who would like to design electronic boards or products. Learning board design in the right software can open you door into many companies, help you toÂ get a well paid job and can be used to design very complex and advanced boards.

DesignÂ a Real Board and Learn Essentials of UsingÂ Altium Designer

- Draw your ownÂ schematic
- Route yourÂ PCB andÂ do layout
- Generate documentation needed to manufacture your PCB

Altium Designer is a PowerfulÂ Software

During this course you will learn how to use Altium Designer software.Â Altium Designer is a professional software used to design all kind of boards, from very simple ones to motherboards or servers. ItÂ is one of the most usedÂ softwareÂ for electronic design. Learning Altium is usefulÂ for everyone planning or already working in electronics.

Contents and Overview

You will start withÂ Arduino Uno reference schematic. You will learnÂ how to re-draw theÂ schematic,Â modify it, you will learnÂ how to improve it and how to do PCB layout. The course videos are step-by-step and even if you are new in electronics or you have never used Altium Designer before, by repeating these steps, you will design your own board. By the end of this course, you will create all the necessary documents needed to manufacture the board.Â

Within 15 hours you will learn how to:

- Draw schematic, including tips for component selection and importantÂ circuits
- Create components, drawÂ schematic symbols and footprints
- Place components into your PCB
- Route PCB and useful tips aboutÂ layout
- Create 3D model of your board
- Create board variants with different components fitted / not fitted
- CreateÂ Bill of Material (BOM)
- Create assembly drawings showing position of components on the board
- Generate Gerbers, Pick and Place, Drill fileÂ and other files needed for manufacturing
- Prepare professional documents needed to manufacture your PCB and assemble your board
- Bring your board to life, flash firmware and run a simple LED BlinkyÂ example

For everyone interested, the manufacturing documents created during this courseÂ can be used to build your board. Simply useÂ PCB manufacturing data to get yourÂ PCB, buy components from Digikey and solder them by yourself.

Enjoy this course :)
