Editing Your PCB Geometry with MCAD Tools

David Haboud

| 已创建：June 24, 2020 | 已更新：April 12, 2021

You need to define your PCB geometry in the context of your enclosure. If your board cannot physically be assembled into the final product, it doesn't matter how well laid out it is electrically.

This webinar focuses on how the MCAD CoDesigner allows you to edit your PCB in the context of a higher-level assembly, allowing you to respect the relevant mechanical constraints. Topics covered include:

Defining the board outline geometry in MCAD software
Creating board cutouts and mounting holes in MCAD software
Bi-directional design data transfer between Altium Designer and MCAD software
Change history traceability with commenting, author, and time tracking.

35:23 Altium 365: Real-Time Sharing and Collaboration Whether you are an individual designer or a team of people, there are always others in the value chain that you rely on to turn your design from intent to reality. Making this happen means you have to collaborate and share. One of the problems is that the way this is done today can be cumbersome, error-prone and inefficient — we haven’t progressed much beyond phone calls and emails, until now.
