Empowering Your PCB Design Process with Altium Designer Extension Applications

Enhancing Your Design Capabilities

Altium Designer offers a range of extension applications that can greatly enhance and streamline the PCB design process. These extensions cater to specialized design processes before and after the board layout, ensuring a flexible and comprehensive design system. By integrating these extensions, users can instantly extend the capabilities of their design platform, making it a personalized reflection of their specific needs in electronics design.

Power Analyzer and Signal Analyzer

Two crucial extensions offered by Altium Designer are the Power Analyzer and Signal Analyzer. The Power Analyzer provides sophisticated power analysis capabilities without requiring specialized training. Users can analyze, modify, and re-analyze without leaving the PCB editor, streamlining the power analysis process. On the other hand, the Signal Analyzer helps users quickly detect and resolve signal integrity issues, even without deep technical knowledge. This ensures the highest project quality and faster completion, ultimately leading to improved overall design efficiency.

JTAG Maps and Third-Party Integrations

Altium Designer also offers the JTAG Maps extension, a free intuitive tool that assists hardware engineers in assessing the potential of using Boundary scan testing in their designs. It prepares the JTAG test data upfront, simplifying the testing process. Additionally, Altium Designer integrates with third-party applications like BQR fiXtress™, which enables designers to create reliable electronics systems without expensive respins or physical prototypes. The WEBENCH Power Designer from Texas Instruments allows accurate design and simulation of power supplies directly within Altium Designer, offering seamless integration for power analysis and design.

Octopart Part Lookup and More

Altium Designer's extensions also include Octopart Part Lookup, which provides access to over 30+ million components for easy selection in PCB projects. The PDN Analyzer extension allows users to create efficient power delivery networks directly within the Altium Designer environment, optimizing power management in designs. Furthermore, the XJTAG DFT Assistant extension is a free tool designed to help board designers assess and improve the testability of their PCBs throughout the design process, enhancing the overall testing efficiency.

Explore the Possibilities

Altium Designer offers a wide array of extension applications to cater to diverse design needs and requirements. From power analysis to signal integrity testing and component selection to testability assessment, these extensions aim to empower designers at every stage of the PCB design process. By exploring and leveraging these extensions, users can unlock the full potential of Altium Designer, creating efficient and high-quality electronic designs.
