ALTIUM DESIGNER 24

Altium Designer 24 is the latest version of the leading PCB design software, bringing many improvements and new features to support electronics engineers in the design and manufacturing process. Here are some highlights:

1. 3D-MID (3D Mechanical-Integrated Device) Design

Altium Designer 24 introduces a 3D-MID design tool, allowing the creation and editing of electronic designs on 3D surfaces. This feature simplifies the integration of non-planar electronic designs, synchronizes components and schematic documents, eliminating the need for additional M-CAD tools.

2. Improved Power Analyzer Tool

Developed with Keysight, the Power Analyzer in Altium Designer 24 helps identify and resolve challenges in power network analysis. New improvements allow assigning current to multiple signal paths on the same component, ensuring a seamless and efficient power analysis experience.

3. Support for Single-Layer PCB Design

Altium Designer 24 supports the design of single-layer printed circuit boards, fully integrated into the Layer Stack Manager and related outputs, meeting the needs of simple and cost-effective designs.

4. Harness Design Improvements

The new version allows specifying stripping length and pull-out length when defining crimp-type connectors in wiring diagrams, helping prevent manufacturing errors and improve design efficiency.

5. PCB Layout Copying Feature

The 'Copy Layout' feature allows copying portions of the PCB layout, supporting the quick and accurate creation of test jigs or repetitive designs.

With these improvements, Altium Designer 24 continues to affirm its position as a powerful and modern PCB design tool, meeting the ever-increasing demands of the electronics industry.
