Altium Designer

Altium Designer is a computer utility for Windows devices that provides tools for creating programmable circuits. The functionality available in the application will be useful for those who are engaged in the development of projects of radio-electronic equipment. It is possible to design three-dimensional models of various controllers, as well as boards. The program is not suitable for beginners in this case, as it is oriented to professionals.

Designing

To get started, the user needs to create a new project and select its type. Then an advanced editor for designing various schemes will open. It works on the principle of a constructor. The user is allowed to select any elements from the built-in collection and drag and drop them onto the scheme being created. At the same time, the computer program allows you to establish links between the added parts, as well as customize their size and properties. This utility was developed for real professionals in this field. Thanks to this, the program can be used to design multi-level and complex schemes. One of the key features of the local editor compared to similar utilities is the possibility of end-to-end work on different layers of the project. Therefore, if the user makes any changes to the board, they will immediately affect the block with logic circuits.

Models

The developers introduced a function in the utility that provides the ability to create three-dimensional objects. This allows you to see the final work in a form that is close to reality. When creating such models, the program evenly loads the video card and the central processor of the device.

Features

• Free editor for working on schematics of radio-electronic equipment;
• Availability of an option to create three-dimensional objects;
• Cross-cutting work on different layers of the project;
• Correct functioning on current OC versions.
