Technology

The birth of any functional and reliable electrical device starts with an idea and its interpretation into an initial design. To implement such a design, whether schematic or layout, it is necessary to choose the appropriate design software

Altium Roadshow 2022 fell at the beginning of February this year. The planned meeting with the opportunity to meet in person in Brno was eventually cancelled due to the adverse covid situation and moved purely to the online environment.

Probably no manufacturer in the world today is experiencing unqualified fairy-tale times. There really is a lot to deal with - global raw material shortages, the logistics crisis, covid and post-covid measures, innovation, automation, or the constant lack of quality human resources. Yet, looking back over the last twelve months, Ondřej Horký, Sales Manager at Gatema PCB, has reasons to smile rather than frown. The company has strengthened its position, succeeded in meeting its ambitious economic plan and managed to put into practice a number of technologies in a year that are once again taking it further.

The foundation of any PCB design is a properly executed circuit diagram. In our last article, we wrote tips on how to get it right and what to look out for. But the work is far from over with the schematic. We'll show you how to design a working PCB - the first time, without mistakes.

Why doesn't it work? Every HW developer has asked this question during the course of their development career. What mistakes can lead to non-functionality of the designed electronics? And how can design software help you?
