A few days ago I commented in a youtube video that it would be good to see a tutorial on how to use the JLCPCB assembly service using Altium. And you explained it perfectly in this video. Thanks.!

Thanks Phil, i been learning Altium design for a few weeks now and my guide had been your videos on KiCad design, I'm glad now you have a basics tutorial for Altium and maybe in the future you can make a more advance tutorial

Hey man love your videos, you have brought me into PCB design and I am currently designing my first Hard board using a STM32MP157F MPU. I have learned lots from you and gotten the basics of everything to start implementing RAM chips, NAND flash, 1 GBit ETH. All of this would have been possible without you.

Is everybody else in the same boat I am in? I had some great ideas for some projects after following Phil over the past year. But there simply aren't too many ways to get a hold of really fast processors right now. It is a good time to play around with Altium and KiCad. I do have a bunch of barely touched development boards laying around. But I want to make something now... that's really smart... and fast... starting yesterday. Maybe pull an Stm32H7 off of a development board? Must resist.., I have some ideas about how to spend the time until processors become available. Good time to play with some development boards, learn a new processor, maybe write some drivers and abstraction layers. But were talking about a year or two? Okay, I am not blaming Phil. If he just did not make this stuff so interesting, I could learn to paint.

Hey Phil I am trying to learn the basics of Altium but am struggling I followed along with this but had heaps of errors and I do not know why. Struggling for the past 4 days! could you make an absolute beginner video? covering the grid controls etc? or what resource would you recommend this was good but missed steps such as when you routed it.

What do you think of 0 ohm resistors to jump over traces instead of vias and routing to some other layer? Case in point the IMU_INT @18:31. The resistor/jumper is not free but in some case it might save a layer, avoid splitting the ground plane, or keep everything on the same layer etc.

Hey Phil love your videos as always, was just curious what happened to the audio board coded pcb design course I haven’t heard about that one in a while. I know you must be very busy so no rush at all was just curious. Thank you as always.

Also can’t wait for the fpga course that’s really the next area I want to go into for developing my skill set as an engineer and also the integration of Ethernet and peripherals of that sort seems very interesting.

Hey Pietro, I've kinda pivoted away from the audio board towards this FPGA board, which also contains some mixed-signal elements. It's taken me much longer than expected though to make all of this - been rather busy with all sorts of work!

when you draw the outline , assume the thickness is 0.5mm . does the manufacturer cut inside or outside or middle of this outline ? because i need the board to be of a specific dimensions

@Gruftgrabbler 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Phil. Thank you for the videos. I‘m new to Altium (coming from KiCAD). I was always confused why there are no generic components like in KiCAD. Do you have created the generic components on your own? Are you willing to share them? EDIT: After trying to follow your tutorial and do a breakout board on my own I realised that its pretty much impossible to place a simple capacitor like you did in altium... What is this? Is altium a sort of joke? Why is it so complicated to just put a regular cap in the schematic??!?!? Thanks and greetings 🖖

@PhilsLab 2 жыл бұрын

Hi David, Getting to grips with Altium after having used KiCAD for a while does take some attempts. Initially, I was also quite hesitant regarding the library system - but it's something you will quickly get used to. I may publish my libraries to GitHub so everyone can use them and will let you know when I do so.

@Phil's Lab - Please provide an update on whether this board works or not? I tried to get an output ( _also using a level shifter breakout board_ ) using Arduino Uno with available code in GitHub but the result is static and not working. It would be great to know whether this is a design fault or the OEM's ( _not JLCPCB_ ) manufacturing fault.
