Design Intuitively
and Intelligently
Precision and speed are essential for meeting challenging electronics design requirements and tight timelines.
Altium Designer is an integrated, user-friendly tool incorporating everything from schematics and layout to simulation and analysis so you can meet design requirements and tight timelines effortlessly.
Create electronic designs from schematic capture to final design documentation and manufacturing files – all in one intuitive interface and unified data model.
Offers comprehensive wire bonding tools directly accessible from PCB layouts and libraries, ensuring rule compliance and design precision.
Perform SPICE simulations, resolve power issues without relying on expensive prototypes, and analyze signal integrity, all within Altium Designer.
Explore a new world of design possibilities with the latest manufacturing technology that can be accessed within an existing PCB project in Altium Designer.
Collaborate
and Connect
Seamlessly
Effective collaboration, seamless connectivity, and resource optimization are keys to success in electronic product development.
Altium Designer connects PCB designers to their colleagues through Altium Develop and Altium Agile. Co-creation has never been so easy and effective.
Connect your ECAD solution with the most popular MCAD tools, Ansys simulation experts, and PLM systems to seamlessly exchange data and reduce costly and time-consuming rework.
Speed up layout design by involving more than one Engineer to design different parts of the same PCB simultaneously.
Elevate your design process to unparalleled levels of efficiency, transparency and innovation using digitally managed workflows configurable to how your organization wants to work.
Enable real-time design feedback and task coordination directly within the project - no emails, no guesswork, no missed details.
Tackle Any
Design Complexity
Electronic designs vary in complexity, posing challenges such as flexible designs and multi-board setups.
Altium Designer is a complete tool for PCB projects, from basic circuits to full avionics systems. With features for design rule management, advanced routing, and 3D surface design, you can efficiently navigate complexities and control costs.
Intuitively manage an increasing number of nets and design objects to ensure design performance and requirements are met with a spreadsheet-like, object-based constraint editor.
Seamlessly design electronic products with HDI, high-speed, multi-board, harness, and rigid-flex without needing any additional software.
Efficiently route high-speed electronics and dense layouts at any angle with an industry-leading interactive routing engine.
Easily replicate flat PCB designs by copying an existing layout from a current or previous design
Enable accurate design and visualization of HDI structures so you can create layouts with smaller components, tighter traces, and improved performance.
Achieve flawless true single-layer designs with full support for stackup management, tailored for specialized applications like flexible PCBs and unique substrates.
Manage, Access,
and Sync Your Data
Effective PCB design demands meticulous data management, encompassing libraries, schematics, layouts, and mechanical elements.
Powered by cloud-enabled synchronization, Altium Designer offers secure, version-controlled data management and real-time component information, reducing risks and enhancing manufacturability decisions.
Know who made changes to a project, when, and why with a complete project history and visual change comparison between schematics, layouts, BOMs, and gerbers.
Centralize and streamline your library management workflow with templates, lifecycles, and where-used capabilities, plus monitor for issues like supply chain risks or inaccurate part details.
Confidently choose parts with real-time insights for pricing, availability, and risk assessments from industry-leading supply chain data providers
