September 23, 2020 | Business WireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
AltiumLive, Altium’s annual flagship printed circuit board (PCB) design conference, is transitioning from a live, three-day event into a virtual summit. The free event is open to all, and meticulously curated to preserve the quality and content the electronic design community has come to expect.
“We’re very excited to deliver our unique AltiumLive experience for the first time ever in a virtual format. As always, we will provide a dynamic approach to learn, network and collaborate - but this time, from the convenience of either your home or workplace,” said Ted Pawela, Altium’s COO. “By making our conference both virtual and free of charge, it will remove the limitations of time, travel, workload, and budget, enabling many more members of the design community to attend.”
Now in its fourth year, AltiumLive coalesces the electronic design community’s best and brightest, featuring luminary keynote speakers, panels and ample opportunity for attendees to network with their peers from all over the world.
This year’s event also features some of the biggest speakers yet, including David Pellarin of Amazon Web Services and Picotest’s Steve Sandler, as well as major fan favorites like Teledyne LeCroy’s Dr. Eric Bogatin, Jeremy Blum, founder of Shaper Tools, and Rick Hartley, president of RH Enterprises.
The three-day event will also include exclusive sessions that can be viewed on-demand, live Q&A sessions, interactive electronics education and networking, daily happy hours, virtual tours of manufacturing facilities and more.
With half-day live events plus optional sessions and activities, attendees will be able to customize their AltiumLive experience, while balancing work-from-home needs.
AltiumLive will be held across six days in October to best accommodate North American and European audiences. The North American dates are October 6-8, 2020; the European dates are October 20-22, 2020.

Rules of Thumb for PCB Layout
11/21/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, I-Connect007The dictionary defines a “rule of thumb” as “a broadly accurate guide or principle, based on experience or practice rather than theory.” Rules of thumb are often the foundation of a PCB designer’s thought process when tackling a layout. Ultimately, a product spec or design guideline will provide the detailed design guidance, but rules of thumb can help to provide the general guidance that will help to streamline the layout process and avoid design or manufacturing issues.
