From Zero to PCB | using Altium Designer

This video is a tutorial on how to make PCB with Altium. From idea to files ready for manufacturing.
Here I am using LED chaser circuit with 555 timer 4017 counter.
Making a PCB with Altium is not realy hard so enjoy!

Bruh this guy could teach anything. And I love how he also gave us the "if you dont have a genuine version do this" for people that can't afford the proper suite. Thankyou!

[@Audas101]

Thank you for watching the video and thank you for the compliment! I try to make my videos so it would clear to myself what I did without to much thinking :D and yeah I know that engineering programs are expensive so it's aleays good to have the knowledge how to use it differently.

[@alexptvz1076]

man you have a talent to explain everything in very easy way, thank you

[@Audas101]

Thank you!! I think it's because I try to do these videos also as reminder videos for myself too :D if I forget smth i can always look up again in the video I made :D So thank You!

[@totem1997]

Switching from one EDA to another is painful. I know what I need to do but the burden is to where you can get those function. This is exactly what I am looking for. This 30 mins video save me ddddddddays of reading. Thanks

[@Audas101]

Thanks for watching! Actually I made this video to just remember how to use Altium so I'm really happy it helps others too!

[@jayadevashok2070]

This video is amazing, you go through every single step and thats really helpful for beginners

[@Audas101]

Thank You very much! I am glad it helped!

[@CrazySD1993]

5:06 The resistor type has changed since the video was made, "3313J-1-503E" is now classed under "TRIMMER" instead of "Potentiometer"

[@TBHToBeHonest]

perfect video!!! please make more videos on how to use altium!

Nice video shot, thanks for sharing it :)

[@Audas101]

Thank Youuu! And thanks for watching!

[@kumu2024]

Applying GND or VCC plane should be done in a calculated manner. Take this example I have from my experience. If you have a small BGA chip (2x2mm), that doesn't require a lot of current. CAD program will rout the traces thin. BUT!!!!! The GND plane will be thick. The trace of GND will be much much thicker than all other traces. What is bad with this? Manufacturer of the board will face a difficult time to balance the oven since for one pin you need a lot of heat, and other doesn't require so much. Which results in either total melting of the balls of the other pins and shorting them, or if the temperature is not enough to melt the GND pin's ball. It will result in cold-soldring. You need to be careful .. Applying big GND or VCC should be with thoughts.

[@adityakrishnavinod3134]

the thing i liked the most is your ' oh yeah' 😂😂

[@Audas101]

Thank you for watching! I meed to find the "oh yeah" amd compare it to Mark Robers "oh yeah" :D

[@arunk5866]

you did great job man awesome

[@faresfatnassi2616]

SAved me, great tutorial

[@Audas101]

I am very glad it helped! And thank you for watching!

[@haideralikhan5947]

This was such a great video, I have watched it at least 5 times. Could please explain why do we need a polygon form at 22:20 ? Is it make a Vcc and a GND plane? So how many layers is the PCB going to have? I did not use them because for testing I made a circuit with just one resistor and a LED. I wonder if it still work since current can flow on the PCB tracks and not on the planes

[@Audas101]

Hey, thanks for watching! especially so many times! so he polygon is only for informational purpose in this video. it is really not necessary to put it on a simple circuit like this. And in your case with one resistor and one LED it will definitely work and no polygon is needed. Actually these polygons are used for (as Altium itself describes) - "On a signal layer, you can place a solid polygon pour to define an area for carrying large power supply currents, or as a ground-connected area for providing electro-magnetic shielding. Hatched polygon pours are commonly used for ground purposes in analog designs.".

[@dineshmurugan2654]

very good job!

[@Audas101]

Thank You!!

[@shrikantsawant1810]

Thanks nice way but I have doubt can we create mounting holes that is free pads

[@SumitBouraiMSME-TC]

appreciate your work...

[@Audas101]

Thank You!

[@krsndas9692]

Great Video

[@Audas101]

Thank You for watching!

[@arifmartoyo]

Thank you

my place button (in manufacturer part search) not active. Can you help me?

[@abbasumar2555]

This software is very nice

[@Audas101]

Yes it is very popular for making pcb's. Thank You for watching the video!

[@RD-ni7qe]

Question, do you also set the grid to 1mm on the Schematic page? (and does it matter if you set the grid before or after you have made your schematic?)

[@Audas101]

I don't remember about the schematic, but I think that the grid was set on 1 mm in schematic page. And it does not matter if you set the grud before or after, it only changes at what intervals your mouse is locking to points. For myself I always try to use smaller grids like 1 or 2 mm.

[@diwakarmr9124]

for me its not showing components place option ...what is the problem explain

[@mohamedabdel-aziz1986]

thanks, and we need more vedios.

[@Audas101]

And thank you for watching! New vids incoming!

[@KJ93STUDIO]

Thank you so much for this ❤. I have a question....I was being told that ALTIUM is the most used PCB design software in the industry right now. As a first year electronics Engineering student I am really trying my best to learn everything although it's not even being discussed in our University. Is ALTIUM really that needy? What should I do to be ahead in the electronics Industry? Plz answer ❤

[@henaslim3879]

While updating pcb, it is showing as comparing schematic document and pcb document no difference is detected and there is no Pcb updation, why is it so ? Please tell what’s wrong?

[@sabirshah6060]

nice job amazing sir'

[@Audas101]

Thank You!

[@josxd8598]

Hello friend, great video!, do you know a site or course where i can learn about components such capacitor, mosfets, inductors, to make calculations of them to know which value of each type i need on a particular project?

[@NyarkoSolomon1]

Search: Engineering mindset

[@Audas101]

Hey, so about that :D there isn't one site where you can learn it all, but really You could just start gathering knowledge from simple electronics circuits where You need to calculate some simple formulas. And I'm glad that You enjoyed my video!

[@udithweerasinghe6402]

super video

[@Audas101]

Thank you!!

[@mnadeemansari7471]

Good

[@sharptruth4132]

where can i find your components?

[@herusuprapto6229]

What ia tge software you use?

[@rambabusingh5775]

what is the projece name of this?

[@yzoueeedu2258]

So you are not using Annotation feature, but instead manually assign the designators for each component in the sch? Any reason for that? Thx

[@kumu2024]

I would say one example how you would need to do so. If you want to sort the components you are using by the functional area, you wouldn't let the placements sequence decide the components number. You would like to decide the components number by yourself. That will help manufacturer of your board or yourself when you do rework, or mounting works. I had many time at the job so difficult time to find component where you wanted to find for example after R22, finding R23 which should and supposed to be near to the same area, while I founded R23 at a location which was far away from the R22. That make your life too difficult.

[@amirharsat2224]

Trying to understand how did you able to "Place" a part, to me its unavailable option no matter what I'm doing, would you like to share some points around it?

[@Audas101]

Hey, I think you can't place parts from manufacturers part search when Altium is cracked (you know tpb), but if I am correct you can still add your own component libraries and place them from there.

[@amirharsat2224]

@@Audas101 damn now I need to make my own libraries oof it would take time ..tnx for the help

[@Audas101]

No no, You don't need to make Your own libraries You can use already made ones from internet like snapEDA or ultralibrarian

[@alltoallytc3402]

hi sir how did you see its 3D by pressing which key ?

[@Audas101]

Hey! so You need to press 3 (above letters) or You can go to "View" and "3D Layout Mode). Thanks for watching my video!

[@anturoy3224]

Sir, polygon is not coming Can you help me?? 🙏🙏🙏

[@bogmaerke]

Might as well use wider tracks. It's at no cost to you since manufacturers doesn't charge for total amount of copper but merely the layer thickness.

[@bogmaerke]

And also, don't use vias to go back to top layer if your component is through hole. Then it can be connected directly from the bottom layer.

[@PedroHenriqueTelesDeAmorimSouz]

can u show the components that u use on your schematic??

[@Audas101]

Well, when I am creating the circuit schematic or even when I first looked up the circuit You can see all the components I use

[@Ydooo]

on mine it says unknown pin

[@abbasumar2555]

Hi, please what is the software name?

[@Audas101]

Software is Altium designer

[@MuhammadUsman-ht6fn]

Version??
