MASTER THE BASICS
BASIC PCB DESIGN
LEARN THE FUNDAMENTALS OF PCB DESIGN USING PADS VX
In this modern-day world of technology, electronic products are essential. However, many layout designers struggle with component placement for EMI and assembly due to unfamiliarity with PADS environment shortcuts and DFT/DFM standards. With Wizlogix's three-day course, you will learn the basic design flow and see how schematic changes affect layout. Gain hands-on experience in schematic creation, footprinting, routing, and gerber generation using PADS VX Standard, while mastering basic IPC standards to design high-quality PCBs.
Course Overview
In this modern technology world, electronic products are vital. Many designers struggle to place components correctly for EMI or assembly because they lack knowledge of PADS shortcuts and DFT/DFM standards. In this three-day course, you will master the design flow and hands-on procedures like footprint creation, routing, and gerber generation using Mentor Graphics PADS VX. By understanding IPC standards and the new constraint editor, you will be equipped to build reliable, professional-grade PCBs.
