Guided tour

This detailed video demonstrates some of the core features and methodologies of Altium’s unique next generation electronics design solution.

The entire product development process with a single unified design solution

  • A single solution to develop hardware, programmable hardware and software
  • Take designs from concept to manufacture within a single unified environment
  • A single model of the design data, and a single design data storage system

Freely explore design concepts ‘on-the-fly’

  • Explore devices from different vendors with minimal design reengineering
  • Easily explore design concepts and options before committing to final hardware
  • Use IP from any source, without being restricted to vendor-specific ‘sticky IP’

Rapidly prototype using a live, interactive hardware development system

  • Develop, explore and debug designs on real hardware, in real-time with ‘LiveDesign'
  • Harness the full potential of reprogrammable devices with soft-centric design
  • Change software and hardware with equal ease and on-the-fly

Smooth the path from design to board layout and manufacture

  • Single centralized data source simplifies version control and component management
  • Visualize and interact with board designs in real-time 3D, within the PCB editor
  • Seamless collaboration with MCAD designers and other engineering teams

Easily connect to wider company systems

  • Single access point for all design data simplifies links for data management systems
  • Plug-in capability and built-in interfaces for external data management
  • All involved in product development process access one design environment

Be equipped for the future with the latest design technologies

  • Expand existing skill sets while harnessing the latest devices and techniques
  • Make soft design and the creation of device intelligence the focus of design
  • Immediately access new technology through consistent and frequent updates

Be productive right ‘out-of-the-box’

  • All tools and technologies in the box, including parts libraries and royalty-fee IP
  • No need to purchase costly add-ons to make a complete solution
  • Continually updated with latest devices and technologies

Altium Designer is a unified electronics design solution. So you can capture and design the physical PCB platform, create the programmable system hardware, develop the embedded software, and manage all the projects that that make up an electronic product, all within a single unified design environment. You can link dynamically with your MCAD peers designing the cases for your products to check whether the electronics will in fact fit, in real time, from within Altium Designer, in 3D. You can change, change, and change your designs again, and update your data with a single click - and everyone on the project will know what's just happened. You can link dynamically to external component suppliers via the internet as you design, so you know what's available to you at what price. You can manage your design and design data for manufacture in a variety of formats. All with one application. Out of the box.
