When the blank schematic sheet opens, the main menu bar and related buttons change in context for schematic entry displaying the Active Bar in the workspace. (The file extension *.SchDoc is automatically added). Type the name Multivibrator in the File Namefield and click Save. Projects Panel ADDING A SCHEMATIC TO THE CIRCUIT BOARD PROJECTġ) Right-Click on Multivibrator.PrjPcb and select Add New to Project » Schematic.Ĭreate a New Schematic Sheet for the CircuitĢ) To save the new schematic sheet, select File » Save As or select Save. Choose or create the project directory and save the project withthe name Multivibrator.ģ) The project name will appear in the Projects panel.

The PCB project is the set of design documents (files) required to specify and manufacture a custom PCB circuit board. The circuitis shown below it uses two 2N3904 transistors configured as a self running astable multivibrator.Ĭapturing (drawing) the schematic is the first step of the tutorial, but first a project must be created. The design that will be captured and implemented as a printed circuit board (PCB) is a simple astable multivibrator.
New users of Altium software may find value in reading the article Exploring Altium Designer for an explanation of the interface, information on how to use panels, and guidelines for managing design documents.
This tutorial is based on an astable multivibrator design.
