Programs

Altium Designer schematic capture & PCB editing training

This course is suitable for users who are unfamiliar with Altium Designer as well as users wanting to brush-up on the latest schematic and board-level features of Altium Designer. The course begins with a basic introduction but quickly advances to have you designing and laying out your own schematics and PCBs. Topics include:

• Introduction to Altium Designer environment
• Schematic editor environment, features and processes
• Schematic / PCB libraries
• PCB design process
• Creating a PCB and setting up PCB layers
• Component placement and routing
• Advanced navigation techniques
• Design rules
• Design output generation

Altium Designer FPGA, Software & Systems Development training (Embedded Intelligence)

The Embedded Intelligence course builds upon schematic and PCB skills established in the Schematic Capture and PCB Editing training course. Attendees are advised to have completed the Schematic Capture and PCB Editing training course (or at least be proficient in these tools) prior to attending this next level.

Embedded Intelligence is the term used to encompass all aspects of FPGA and Embedded Software domains. This course is suitable for users who wish to understand how they can tap into the benefits of FPGA based design without the pain usually associated with using these devices. No prior FPGA or programming experience is necessary. This course will have you up and running on the NanoBoard in no time with your very own FPGA-based applications.

Topics include:

• Introduction to FPGA design
• Schematic based FPGA development
• Running an FPGA design on the NanoBoard
• Creating custom FPGA core components
• The TASKING Compiler / Debugger tool chain
• Utilizing microprocessor soft-cores
• The LiveDesign paradigm
• From FPGA to PCB
• Pin swapping
• Design commissioning

Altium Designer Advanced Training

Altium Designer Advanced Training is for Altium Designer users who have previously taken the three day Schematic and PCB training class and who would like to take their skills to the next level by further learning about advanced topics.

Topics covered in the two day class include:

Day One:

• New features introduction
• Using Circuit Simulation
• How to setup Pin Swapping
• Design re-use in Altium Designer
• Multi-channel design
• Version Control Implementation
• Importing Wizard
• Customization in Altium Designer

Day Two:

• Query system and its uses
• 3D – how to best implement
• Autorouter and BGA escape routing
