Tutorial – Creating the Project and Schematic Document in Altium Designer

Altium Designer Schematics Design

Creating a New PCB Project

In Altium’s electronic design software, a PCB project is the set of design documents (files) required to specify and manufacture a printed circuit board. The project file, for example Multivibrator.PrjPCB, is an ASCII file that lists the documents in the project as well as other project-level settings, such as the required electrical rule checks, project preferences, and project outputs, such as print and CAM settings.

A new project is created by running the File » New » Project command to open the Create Project dialog.

Adding a Schematic to the Project

The next step is to add a new schematic sheet to the project.

Add a schematic sheet to the project, name and save the schematic, and save the project.

Setting the Document Options

Before you start drawing your circuit, it’s good to set up the appropriate document options, including the Sheet Size, and the Snap and Visible grids.
