What is this course about:
This course is a first of its kind in which you will learn from start to finish on how to design your very own custom Arduino Printed Circuit Board (PCB). This course will help you to improve your PCB design skills which will help you to get started freelancing or to get a job in PCB design with Altium Designer being one of the top PCB design tools used around the world.
What is expect in this course:
I will show you how to get started in the world of PCB design using Altium Designer
I show you how to download and install Altium designer as well as demystify the user interface.
I take you step-by-step on how to create your own component library so that you can create your own components if you need to. (very high possibility that you will need to create your own components)
Show you how to add 3D models to components and show you a website where you can find all the component models in one place.
How to recreate the Arduino Nano Schematic in Altium designer as well as wiring components in Schematic view
I show you how to transfer your schematic into PCB view as well as define the board shape
Once the board shape is defined, I show you how to place components on the board, create a multi-layer board ( we are going to use 4-6 layers) .
For a 6 layer board, I teach you how to route between layers and how to strategically place components on to the board design.
Show you how to auto-route, when you are faced with a complex design to save time.
Correct your design and eliminate design errors before sending them to your manufacturer. This will save you money for numerous design iterations
Finally I teach you how to create Gerber files, which are files that your manufacturer can read to create your Printed Circuit Board.
This course will be updated regularly with new lectures, resources, quizzes and content.
Money-Back Guarantee
The course comes with an unconditional, Udemy-backed, 30-day money-back guarantee. This is not just a guarantee, it's my personal promise to you that I will go out of my way to help you succeed just like I've done for thousands of my other students.

I'm enjoying this course alot and I find PCB design to be very cool. I often have to watch a single video 3 to 4 times to understand the work properly. Other than that, I really love this PCB design course.

Decent course, but should have better explained the different shortcuts and menus beings used. It was very difficult to pause and try to figure out how a specific menu/option had been arrived at, and sometimes its done with keyboard combinations so you have no idea how unless you look it up.

Instructor is very knowledgeable. This course was perfect for bringing me up to speed on using Altium 19. However, he sometimes runs through the windows too fast, making the viewer have to re-watch 3 seconds of video over and over again to decrypt what he's doing. He also often makes mistakes that he then goes back and corrects while filming, which means if you're following along you also have to go back and correct too, which wastes a lot of the student's time. On the flip side, seeing how to make effective corrections is in itself a useful thing, but there is a thin line between lazy video-making and instructive mistakes. Overall, very happy with this course, good job and thank you Ritesh!

ATTENTION!!! I suggest people not to take this course.The reasons are as follows;Firstly the instructor does everything(like mouse motions etc.) too fast like he is in a rush and most of students mentioned it but the result was same.I remember that I had to rewatch a part of videos so many times.That caused waste of time.Secondly, his explanations are very inadequate as if he assumes we know altium designer.So ,I recommend not to waste your money more importantly not waste your TIME!!!!!!!!!
