Multiboard Assembly. This is equivalent to where the changed child project data has been imported into the system design, and the connection conflict was been resolved using the Revert option.

If the Swap Pins option was used to resolve the conflict, Pins 4 and 5 on the HDR6 connector in the main board project would have been swapped. Other detected and resolved changes, such as a mismatched Net name are synchronized by a direct update to the target in the child project.

Using Altium Documentation. Now reading version For the latest, read: Capturing the Logical System Design for version The physical counterpart to the logical system design in a Multi-board Schematic document is a Multi-board Assembly document, which is populated with imported PCB data from the Multi-board Project.

For both the Multi-board Project and its open schematic documents, right-click on their entries in the Projects panel then select the File » Save As option to rename the document files accordingly.

A small triangle shape in the lower area of a button indicates that a drop-down menu is available for accessing other related commands. Click and hold the button to open its menu. To assist repeated object placement, the button icon and function will actively change to show the last used menu option. These commands are also available on a module's right-click context menu. Select a Connection graphic in the workspace to see its details, such as the included Nets and Pin connections, in the Properties panel.

Note that along with a connection's Designator , the wire name and local Net name Net for each entry in the Connections list can be edited for convenience. These names are local to the Multi-board system design and do not affect the source Child Projects. Typically you will want the designators and Net Labels displayed, Ports are handy if you are diagnosing an issue. If the Superscript option is enabled, the current document view will include the object identifier from the non-visible view as a superscript.

Configure these to suit your preferences. The view for channel 2 CIN2 of a multi-channel design, note how the designators and net names of the original logical schematic are displayed as superscripts. Are you wondering why some of the schematic elements are dimmed in the channel physical tabs? The default is to show the objects that can be edited in the channel tab in the standard display strength, with non-editable objects dimmed. The dimming is set in the Schematic - Compiler page of the Preferences dialog.

While it might seem frustrating to dim objects, it helps prevent you from trying to perform edit-actions that cannot be supported, such as moving a Net Label in one channel. Set the Dim level as required. The schematic editor's error checking options default to flag every instance of a net with multiple names. This can occur when you intentionally change the name, for example when a net enters a sheet symbol and you prefer to use a different name within that sheet.

The image below shows a number of examples of this, where the Left and Right outputs are bundled into a bus on the top sheet, but are called Left and Right in the Sheet Entries. A bus has been used as it allows the two output channels to be represented by a single sheet symbol with a Repeat keyword. If separate wires were used for the Left and Right channels then the designer would have needed to place separate sheet symbols for the Left and Right output channels both pointing to the same child schematic sheet , and then wire each output to its respective output sheet symbol.

You must instruct the software how to deal with multiple net identifiers. To do this, you will need to either:. When you transfer a design from the schematic editor to the PCB editor, the components from each sheet are clustered in a PCB placement room if Room creation is enabled in the Project Options. The big advantage of using rooms in a multi-channel design is that the PCB editor supports duplicating the placement and routing from one room channel , to the other rooms channels.

Rooms can also be moved as if they are a single object, simplifying the process of arranging the channels on the PCB. The 8 input and 2 output channels after the design was transferred from the schematic editor to the PCB editor, the red areas are the rooms. This scheme would be adequate for a simple design, but is not capable of supporting a multi-channel design, where the same schematic component is repeated in each physical channel so the PCB components would have the same UID.

It can be difficult positioning the designator strings in a multi-channel design, as they can be quite long. As well as choosing a naming option that results in a short name, another option is to display just the original, logical component designation instead. This would require some other notation being added to the board to indicate the separate channels, such as a box being drawn around each channel on the component overlay.

If you choose to display the logical designators for components in a multi-channel design, these will be displayed on the PCB and in any output generated, such as prints and Gerber's. The unique physical designators, however, are always used when generating a Bill of Materials.

These Board Level Annotations are stored in a. Annotation file, which maps each logical designator to the assigned physical designator. This file is part of the project so you will be prompted to save it. The challenge with reusing a section of design, for example linking a Sheet Symbol on your current project to your company's preferred power supply schematic, is that the values of the components are not always fixed from one design to the next.

Parametric Hierarchical Design solves this - it allows you to move the specification of the component values from the schematic sheet, into the sheet symbol that references that sheet. This capability also works perfectly with multi-channel design, allowing you to have different component values in each channel. Note that it does require that each channel has its own Sheet Symbol, as this is where the component values are stored.

For example, a graphic equalizer can have the same circuit repeated many times, with the only difference between each channel being the component values. So a capacitor might take the values 0. Implementing this is simple, since you specify these values in the Sheet Symbol referencing each channel, eliminating the need to have many similar schematics with only the component values being different. Parametric components are defined by declaring their value as a parameter of the sheet symbol above, and then referencing that parameter on the target component.

The image below shows the top sheet for a graphic equalizer on the left, with the parameters of the 1KHz Sheet Symbol next to it. The image also shows the lower-level captured schematic, and the compiled 1KHz channel. A graphic equalizer with different capacitor and resistor values in each channel, the actual component values are defined in the Sheet Symbols, so only 1 lower-level schematic needs to be captured. Each of those Sheet Symbol parameters is also defined as the value of a parameter in a schematic component on a lower-level sheet, as shown in the image below.

When the project is compiled, the Value of each Sheet Symbol parameter is passed to the relevant schematic component, where it is then mapped into the component's Comment field. Parametric hierarchy is not limited to component values, you can parametrically reference any component parameter or any text label on the schematic sheet.

You're ready to begin capturing drawing the schematic. The first step is to create a PCB project. Using Altium Documentation. To learn more about a command, dialog, object, or panel, press F1 when the cursor is over that item. Or there might be mechanical hardware, such as a heat sink with mounting screw, that is needed in the BOM, but you do not want to include on the schematic.

These situations are managed by setting the component's Type. For the example just described, the component type could be set to Graphical. Another special class of component would be a test point — this component is required on both the schematic and the PCB, it should be checked during design synchronization, but is not required in the BOM. For a non-standard type of component, set the Type accordingly.

As well as being used to determine if a component should be included in the BOM, the Type field is also used to determine how that component is managed during component synchronization. All of the Standard , Net Tie and Jumper Types are fully synchronized - that is the component is passed from the schematic to the PCB, and the net connectivity is checked. But if a component with one of these types has been placed manually in the PCB and the matching Type option has been chosen, then component-level synchronization is performed, but no net-level connectivity checks are performed.

Refer to the Component Properties dialog for information on the various Type options. Much of the detail that describes a component is defined as parameters, they allow the designer to define additional textual information about the component. This can include electrical specifications i. Parameters can be defined in the schematic library editor during component creation, they can be added automatically during placement if the component is placed from a database-type library more on this later , or they can be added manually once the component has been placed on the schematic.

For an individual component, parameters are added in the component's properties dialog. As mentioned, this can be done in the library, or once the component has been placed on the schematic sheet. Parameters add detail to the component, this one includes 2 component links. User-defined parameters can be displayed on the schematic alongside the component if required, by enabling the appropriate Visible checkbox.

Edit the parameter to enable the display of the parameter name as well. Click on a component in the PDF to display the parameters, as shown below. Click on a component in the PDF to display the parameters, click on a link-type parameter to open the target.

In the previous two images, there are two pairs of ComponentLink parameters. These are special purpose parameters that are used to define links to external data. These links can be accessed via the right-click menu on the schematic component, or in the Libraries panel, as shown below. Right-click on a component on the sheet left image or in the library right image to access the component links. Refer to the Parameter object to learn more about linking to reference information.

When the design is transferred from the schematic editor to the PCB editor, the only textual information that is transferred for a component is the Designator and the Comment. To support passing other component parameters to the PCB, you can map any of the component's parameters into the component's Comment field, using a technique known as string indirection.

When a string is using the indirection feature, it is referred to as a special string. To display the actual data on the schematic sheet instead of the special string, enable the Convert Special Strings option in the Schematic - Graphical Editing page of the Preferences dialog. Use the special strings feature to map any parameter value to the component's Comment. Special strings allows the mapping of any parameter to any string.

The string can be a component string, a free string placed on the schematic sheet, or a string placed in a schematic template. The parameter can be a component parameter, a document parameter or a project parameter. Refer to the string object for more information on special strings.

Parameters are a key element of each component, and it is common for many of the parameters to be used across multiple components. As well as adding them individually to each component, you can also use the Parameter Manager command to add them to multiple components. The Parameter Table Editor can be used to edit all of the parameters across all of the components.

Main article: Linking to Supplier Data. From the electronic product designer's perspective, one of the most important aspects of component creation is linking from that component, out to the real-world component that it represents. This linkage can range from simply entering the component's Part Number in as a component parameter, through to linking to the purchased component in your company database via a DbLink or DbLib more below.

Another approach is to link directly from the design component to the component's supplier, via the Linking to Supplier Data feature. The key to linking to supplier data is a pair of component parameters, namely Supplier n and Supplier Part Number n. Using these, the software connects to that supplier's web-services, where it can access detailed information about the part: including manufacturer; manufacturer part number; price; voltage rating; and so on.

The software has direct access to web-hosted information for a number of major component suppliers, configured in the Data Management - Suppliers page of the Preferences dialog. Your interface into the supplier linking feature is the Supplier Search panel, click the button down the bottom right to display the panel.

The Supplier Search panel gives you direct access to up-to-date component data. Parameters can be selectively added, if required. Supplier links can be added to an existing component, or a new component can be created, by configuring the workspace as described below, and then right-clicking on the component in the Supplier Search panel and selecting the appropriate command. At the schematic stage, the design is a collection of components that have been connected logically.

To test or implement the design, for example circuit simulation, PCB layout, signal integrity analysis, and so on, it needs to be transferred to another domain. To achieve this, there must be a suitable model of each component for the target domain. Models are linked to the schematic component by adding them on the Models region of the component's properties dialog.

Models are added in the component's properties dialog, each model type opens a different model editor. As part of the process of linking the model, information about the component must be mapped from the schematic to the target model.

In the Schematic library editor, models can be added in the via the component's properties dialog, via the SCH Library panel, and the model region displayed across the bottom of the editing workspace. The 3D model is not linked directly to the component symbol. Instead, the 3D model is placed in the PCB footprint. To learn more about working with 3D models and placing them in a footprint, refer to the article Creating the PCB Footprint.

There is other information needed for the system to access that domain-specific information, such as the pin-mapping and net listing between the schematic symbol and the domain specific model. This information is defined in a domain-specific model editor which opens when a model is added or edited - you can see examples in the image above. As well as referencing the model file, it will also include any pin mapping or netlisting information required for that model kind.

For information about mapping a model to a symbol, press F1 when the required model dialog is open.

 

Altium designer module 17 free.System-level Multi-board Design with Altium Designer

 

Each new project includes a new solution, new details, and new compromises to which the engineer MUST pay attention. In order to get the results closer to the ideal, the designer of the future device must make proper calculations, imagine the consequences of decisions made, compare different device configurations and, finally, make the right choice.

Altium Designer offers a complete set of tools allowing the engineer to follow the PCB development path without leaving the design environment and without resorting to third-party programs. From the beginning of the project to its completion, the designer must perform many operations related to each particular stage of the development path.

From these stages, as from the blocks, a typical design path is built. The development path of every PCB always starts with creating a new project in which the design of the schematic and board will be carried out and synchronized. At this point, it is assumed that a library is created and placed in your repository.

In this guide, you will use the existing library of managed components. After the project is created, work starts on the electrical schematic design on which the components are placed and their interconnections are defined.

The Electrical Rules Check ERC design rules will be checked several times while working on the schematic, and once completed, the project will be compiled. The next step contains all the work related to PCB design. This step includes forming the board shape, creating a layer set stackup , synchronizing with the schematic, design rules definition, components placement, routing, and much more. After the PCB is completely designed and error-free, the documentation development stage begins including exporting the Bill Of Materials BOM exporting, creating assembly drawings, etc.

The final step of the PCB development path is uploading files for the manufacturer to create a printed circuit board that will be used to create a finished device. These are the steps necessary in a typical PCB development path. Choose your Topic Connecting to Altium Working with Projects. Inviting Users to Collaborate.
