History[edit]
In 1985, Protel Systems Pty Ltd launched the DOS-based PCB design tool known as Protel PCB (which later emerged into Autotrax and Easytrax). Originally it was sold only in Australia.[1][2] Protel PCB was marketed internationally by HST Technology Pty Ltd. since 1986.[2] In October 1986 the San Diego-based ACCEL Technologies, Inc. acquired marketing and support responsibilities of the PCB program for the USA, Canada and Mexico under the name Tango PCB.[2] In 1987, Protel launched the circuit diagram editor Protel Schematic for DOS.
In 1991, Protel released Advanced Schematic and Advanced PCB 1.0 for Windows (1991-1993), followed by Advanced Schematic/PCB 2.x (1993-1995) and 3.x (1995-1998).In 1998, Protel 98 consolidated all components, including Advanced Schematic and Advanced PCB, into a single environment. Protel 99 in 1999 introduced the first integrated 3D visualization of the PCB assembly. It was followed by Protel 99 SE in 2000.
Protel DXP was issued in 2003, Protel 2004 in 2004, Altium Designer 6.0 in 2005.
Altium Designer version 6.8 from 2007 was the first to offer 3D visualization and clearance checking of PCBs directly within the PCB editor.[citation needed]
In May 2014, Altium relocated their corporate headquarters to San Diego, California.[3]
Features[edit]
Protel 2004 Download
Altium Designer's software encompasses four main functional areas: schematic capture,[4] 3D PCB design,[5]Field-programmable gate array (FPGA) development[6] and release/data management.[7] Features include:
- Integration with several component distributors allows search for components and access to manufacturer's data[8][9]
- Interactive 3D editing of the board and MCAD export to STEP[10]
- Cloud publishing of design and manufacturing data[11]
- Simulation and debugging of the FPGA can be achieved using the VHDL language and checking that for a given a set of input signals the expected output signals would be generated.[12] FPGA soft processor software development tools (compiler, debugger, profiler) are available for selected embedded processors within an FPGA.[13]
Reception and criticisms[edit]
Altium Designer is generally found to be more costly than other PCB design software but is noted for its ability to achieve fast results for complex circuits.[14]
