Properties panel routing

Routing is one of the most time-consuming stages of PCB design. Altium Designer has a large set of tools that allow you to do it as accurately and quickly as possible. This document will help you to learn how to manage your routing effectively and use it to its fullest extent.

The basis of PCB topology development in Altium Designer. By offering powerful routing tools, the system provides comprehensive settings. All groups of settings are arranged in accordance with the logic of the tool, as well as have context-dependent representation.

Properties panel overview

The properties panel automatically changes when a user activates the Interactive Trace feature to display the appropriate settings. The panel consists of several sections:

“Net information” section

Single-track routing

In the Net Information section for single-track routing, the following parameters are displayed:

Diff pair routing

For Diff Pair routing in the Net Information section a user can see the following parameters:

“Properties” section

Single-track routing

Diff pair routing

Multi-routing

Layer change

When you change layer, the Properties section will display detailed information about the configuration of the current via

“Interactive routing options” section

“Rules” section

DDR3 Routing Guidelines and Routing Topologies

DDR3 Routing Guidelines and Routing Topologies Without volatile memory, your computer would require constant reading and writing to non-volatile memory like hard drives or Flash. Non-volatile memory is one of the things that makes modern computers so powerful and gives them the adaptability required for advanced tasks. Although DDR3 is now obsolete, DDR-based memory is here to stay and will continue to play a central role in modern computer architecture. With the right design tools, you can 阅读文章

Understanding PCB Copper Thickness in Altium Designer

Understanding Copper Weight and Thickness in PCB Design At one time it was a simple process for printed circuit board designers to get their design manufactured. Board sizes and layer stacks were more generic, and usually, someone else made all the hard layer configuration choices for you. It is a completely different game now with multi-layer PCB designs ranging from two to over thirty layers. In addition, trace widths, ground planes, hole sizes, substrate materials, characteristic impedance 阅读文章

Fly-by Topology for DDR3 and DDR4 Memory: Routing Guidelines Banner image credit: Nine Dot Connects Take a look at your RAM chips the next time you're upgrading your desktop or laptop. If you need to, get the chip under a magnifying glass. Any traces you might see on the surface layer are just the beginning of a complicated web of traces between the edge connector and the RAM chips. Although the routing can get quite complicated, you can see a relatively simple topology when you take a 30,000 foot view of 阅读文章
