Altium Designer

A unified electronic
product development solution

Altium Designer is the world's first and only unified electronic product development system that allows engineers to take a design from concept to completion within a single application. Altium Designer brings together hardware, software and programmable hardware development within a unified environment that allows all aspects of an electronic product to be designed and managed within a single system. This, combined with modern design data management capabilities allows Altium Designer to transcend traditional tool boundaries, opening up new design possibilities that allow more intelligent electronic products to be created faster than ever before.

Altium Designer allows you to harness the potential that exists within today’s electronics technology, giving you design innovation within a unified environment for both today’s and tomorrow’s development needs.

Board level design

Altium Designer’s board-level design capabilities allow you to fully define and implement the physical elements of your design. The powerful rules-driven design, layout and editing environment gives you full control over all aspects of your design in an intuitive and productive environment.

Managing libraries

Altium Designer provides comprehensive component data management and library resources that allow you to maintain control over part usage, regardless of the size or demands of your organization.

Design to manufacture

Altium Designer smooths the transition from design to manufacture by providing a single environment for managing design data, and allows you to actively manage the generation and verification of all manufacturing data..

Harnessing programmable devices

Altium Designer’s unified product development environment allows you fully exploit the potential offered by today's large-capacity programmable devices. You can work within an easily updateable soft realm where you can change software and hardware with equal ease.

Unified FPGA-PCB design

It is crucial for design productivity that programmable device development is fully synchronized with the physical design process. Altium Designer’s unified design environment provides automatic propagation of design data between FPGA design projects and the board design that incorporates them, allowing concurrent FPGA-PCB development

Managing the electronic development process

The development of electronic products no longer involves independent processes. Altium Designer unifies the entire design process and allows you to manage all aspects of development within a single, unified design flow environment.
