Circuit Schematic Drawing Software

Drawing a circuit schematic is often the first step in PCB design. There was a time when schematic capture was completed independently of other steps in the design process. Most engineers and designers created a schematic using specific circuit drawing software, then uploaded the schematics into a different program and hoped for successful synchronization. Thankfully, times have changed– with Altium Designer 18.

At Altium, we’ve invested more than 30 years in PCB design and we are always looking forward– beyond “traditional” methods and techniques. In creating Altium Designer 18, we’ve delivered powerful, fast and technologically advanced tools, features and utilities in a unified design platform. The single data model of PCB design means everything is connected, from schematics to routing to BOM, so frustrating synchronization issues are a thing of the past.

Altium Designer 18 offers am automated checks and balances system, allowing you to seamlessly:

Create a schematic, and board layout with layer stack templates

Access a robust Layer Stack Manager with built-in impedance calculator

Utilize the advanced Design Rule Checker (DRC) and Design Verification

Design interconnected rigid-flex and multi-board assemblies

Access ActiveRoute– user-guided, interactive routing technology

Real-time BOM Management

When you’re ready to upgrade your design software, choose Altium Designer 18. We’ll even include a 15-day FREE trial to get you started.
