Z2Data Integration
Bridge the Information Divide
Shorten Time-to-Market
Altium 365 streamlines component sourcing by integrating Z2Data part data throughout the product development and production lifecycle, saving time and resources on part searching and validation.
Informed Decision-Making
Informed decision-making facilitated by Z2Data's comprehensive analysis of diverse data insights enables the identification of alternative components that may be affected by component availability or obsolescence.
Key Capabilities
Risk Analysis
Z2Data's proprietary PCB part-scoring algorithm rates electronic parts on a scale of 0-100. The comprehensive part score considers various critical factors, including obsolescence projections, compliance status, technology, market availability, and even manufacturer risk.
Centralized Electronic Component Database
Z2Data provides access to various data integrations directly within Altium 365, eliminating the need for multiple external searches.
Reliable Real-Time Data
Regular updates and strict data integrity protocols ensure that all stakeholders, from procurement to design, work with the most current and reliable component information.
Immediate availability of up-to-date component information including lifecycle, pricing, availability, and more, ensuring accurate decision-making.
Enhanced Workflow Efficiency
Z2Data integration fits into the existing PCB design workflow, reducing administrative overhead and focusing on productive design work.
Frequently Asked Questions
The Z2Data Integration needs to be bought separately and is not included in any existing subscription. The price is determined by the number of annual part queries.
To get a free subscription for 150 queries/year, please fill out the form at the top of the page. If you want more queries, please contact our sales team.
When you use Z2Data to obtain data for a specific component, it is considered one "part query." Should you need to access the same component's data again within the same annual billing period, it will not count as an additional query — each unique part is queried just once per year for billing purposes.
During the annual cycle, you'll have continuous access to the data for the parts you've queried, including any updates provided by Z2Data. Once the billing cycle ends, access to the previously retrieved data will be suspended. A new query for the part will be necessary to view the most current data after this point, which will then be counted in the new billing cycle.
Different tiers include different sets of data. Please visit our technical documentation for details.
You must have at least Altium Designer 24 and be connected with your Altium 365 Workspace.
We still recommend the latest Altium Designer version to access all the latest features.
If you use a local library, your library must add Part Choices or Supplier Links at the minimum.
