The Libraries can play a major factor in design process efficiency.
When a good library is in place:
Knowledge of a component is captured and shared by all members of the design team.
The generation of the Bill of Material is automated.
The look and feel of the company's schematics and PCBs are consistent, professional, and organized.
There is no doubt that every designer wants a good library; however, the big question is, "What's necessary to make a good library?" In this webinar series, we will introduce the necessary building blocks to create a library structure that can help your organization improve its workflow.
This webinar will briefly walk you through all of the libraries that Altium Designer offers:
Schematic Libraries
PCB Libraries
Integrated Libraries
Database Libraries
SVN Database Libraries
Component Libraries and their association to Vault
