High Speed Digital Design Techniques with Altium Designer

Synopsis

This is held as a morning session, in advance of the afternoon Signal Integrity session. During the morning our Applications Support Team will define a broad-brushed agenda and then be steered by questions from the audience. Due to the variable nature of this session, you will have to make your own notes.

Workshop format

Premier/Altium Applications Engineers will introduce some of the capabilities of the Altium Designer software with regards to the technology area. Invited customers will be able to ask questions and make notes. They will also be invited to suggest specific agenda items and/or questions prior to the workshop.

Who should attend?

Electronics engineers and design professionals familiar with using Altium Designer at board level.
