Accelerating electronic product design
Summary
PCB designers create the boards (components, copper traces, silkscreens) in the context of a specific device. They have to closely collaborate with the mechanical engineers who define the shape of boards and their enclosures, including mounting holes and the placement of critical components, to have the confidence that everything will fit exactly as planned when it goes to manufacturing. “The benefit of Altium’s CoDesigner capability is the ease of quickly sharing the updated design to check potential mechanical conflicts in SOLIDWORKS. “I love how quickly design changes from the hardware team can be pulled and tested with the latest 3D models using the CoDesigner capability. Mechanical Engineer, can guide you through a hands-on demonstration of how they use Altium’s MCAD CoDesigner capability to optimise and streamline the way their design teams work together.
