Grab an Altium student licence now!

You probably share my passion for designing electronic products. Transforming ideas into reality is usually very satisfactory for engineers. Altium Designer is probably the most powerful and top-notch PCB design software you can get. Also, Altium Designer is the professional engineers choice for PCB design. Since 2010 I have been designing PCBs, and, since 2016 I have been using Altium Designer. I always recommend Altium to my students and use it in my projects.

PROS: Multiple schematic file system, easy tracing modes, unified design interface and component synchronization with online suppliers are very handy. Altium supports complex projects and have powerful tools to work with mixed signals, multiple grounding for EMI/EMC, several bus, power bus and RF.

CONS: Unfortunately it is very expensive :(. However, students can grab their licences for free (Click here to access Altium’s Student License Program).
