Here is a neat trick. In the comment section type in as an example this =Value+' '+Toleranse This will take produce a comment like this 1K 1% If the component value parameter is 1K and the toleranse parameter is 1%. The ' ' is a space you could use '-' to make 1K-1%. Another example is =Designator+'-' Value+' '+Toleranse. Will make a comment string like this R5-1K 1%.
This helps , what we also would like is a video showing how for a professional industry design nomenclature of parts is done and BOM is generated
The double side assembly usually increase the assembly cost even only with a few parts
Hi Philip Salmony, i would like to recommend using the footprint model from the PCB library option "library path" instead "any" while assigning footprint to a symbol. this could avoid picking up the different footprint while using different footprint library files.
Thanks for the tip!
Thank you for the detailed explanations
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, thanks.
Hi Phil,
Thank you for the great video.
What is your approach when creating other footprints ( i.e. SOIC, MSOP, SOT-23) especially considering that different manufacturers show slight differences in dimensions and tolerances?
Do you usually follow a more generic approach like a single footprint covering multiple i.e. SOIC8 packages and increasing tolerances if it's required by when a new component is added?
Or would you recommend having a single footprint for each component (at least per manufacturer)? But then how could we fit this approach when having alternative components with the "same" package?
So far so good. But some important information is missing. I would like to have a separate component in my library for each R0402 resistor value, for example, where all the information (manufacturer, order number, ....) is already stored. Do I have to draw a new symbol each time?
How can the local library be moved to the workspace for access from several computers?
which "component type" that fit with through hole resistor ( timeline : 9:01 in video )??
While footprint generator advanced a little in Altium, I do prefer creating own 3D bodies. It comes especially handy, when projects are size constrained or parts are exotic. 0402 in example will be unfit in ultrahigh density applications.
good and thank u too bro
good luck
please give me list playlist include this video ? I wanna learn from scratch !!
На привьюхе резистор по ГОСТу, а не забугорный, я правильно понимаю?
Isn't the bandwidth range wrong? Should be, .1 to .3 if one follow the Yageo datasheet for 0402
This is good, but it's too easy to just jump to the IPC wizard and call the tutorial done. That's for beginners. For those of us trying to cross-train from another layout software, we're more interested in the common problems, such as a custom connector with mechanical drawing using strange relative dimensions, and custom annotations in the schematic. Please provide a followup for those features.
