If you can design electronics, you can change the world! And as the desire for new and innovative user experiences continues to grow, there

has never been a better time to be an electronics designer. Having the

right skills and tools is an important part of being a successful professional.

But having the right methodology and approach ensures those skills and

tools can be wielded with the greatest impact.

Developed by a team of Altium experts, Altium Training Programs give

you more than just detailed knowledge and the practical application of

Altium Designers features and functions. They explain the unique paradigm and

design methodologies that drive Altiums ongoing development. And by learning from

an authorized Altium Trainer Partner like EDA Technologies, youll gain valuable insights

that will equip you to propel your organization forward.

TECHNICAL COURSES AND SEMINARS

HIGH-SPEED DIGITAL DESIGN SEMINAR

including best-practice PCB Layout and EMI-EMC The speed of todays logic devices mandates that the

interconnects on PCBs must meet the high switching rise/fall

times of these devices. Switching edges are in the 200ps to

300ps range and some devices have edges that have broken

the 100ps barrier. This has resulted in high-speed design

problems such as: reflections, crosstalk, false triggers, and EMI.

Join us for a seminar that gives engineers and designers the

ability to properly design right the first time. The course

provides valuable knowledge to recognize the problems with

any proposed high-speed design. It includes up-to-date design

methodologies to insure that the PCB will function within the

shortest design cycle. The course emphasizes cost competitive

design without sacrificing high-speed integrity.

THERMAL MANAGEMENT WORKSHOP at PCB and system level

The aim of this workshop is to provide delegates with a

comprehensive understanding of the principles and practice of

thermal management in electronic systems. It brings into focus

the problems, and solutions, of designing PCBs for the thermal

environment, and will show how to achieve this by the use of

practical examples.

Occasions to gain such detailed insight into practical design

techniques are rare these days. This Technology Workshop is

truly a unique opportunity to gain invaluable insight into the

depth of the subject. PCB hardware design engineers,

electronics engineers and managers with responsibility for the

thermal design of electronic hardware should attend this

valuable workshop.

IPC CERTIFICATION FOR PCB DESIGNERS The IPC Designer Council is an international society of designers

whose mission is to facilitate and promote the orderly

exchange and integration of design concepts concerning PCBs

and related technologies.

The course aimed at PCB design professionals who need

recognition of their skills and confirmation that the knowledge

they have gained through experience adheres to internationally

accepted standards for PCB design. The course is also aimed at

companies that wish to achieve recognized international design

standardization in printed board design, printed board

assembly and related design technologies.

The program assesses a designer's knowledge of how to

transform a schematic into a reliable PCB which can be easily

manufactured, assembled and tested.

ALTIUM ADVANCED This 4 day face to face course explores in-depth topics to

advance the students knowledge of Altium Designer Schematic

Capture and PCB Layout tools. The material covered will enable

students to use more complex Altium Designer capabilities such

as pin swapping and length tuning. Lectures, demonstrations

and more than 20 hands-on exercises are used to explain and

reinforce these advanced techniques.

ALTIUM VAULTS Getting your product to market is a process that is so much

more than simply designing a board, and involves so many

more people than just designers. Altium Vaults unify your

organizations components, design data, and environments

from inside the Altium Designer interface for your whole

organization so you are able to get your product to market

faster, without sacrificing integrity.
