PCB Footprint Creation Made Easy (IPC Compliant Footprint Wizard)

Multidisciplinary product creation powered by your unconstrained network. Work concurrently across design, sourcing, and manufacturing with real-time insight. 35+ Years of Excellence: https://www.altium.com/develop?utm_so... Footprint creation is typically a time-consuming, tedious, and error-prone process. Tech Consultant Philip Salmony from Phil's Lab outlines how Altium Designer's built-in 'IPC Compliant Footprint Wizard' can make footprint design simple and efficient, including automatic 3D model generation. He explores an example footprint design for a SOIC-8 package, using the manufacturer's datasheet. The IPC Compliant Footprint Wizard comes as part of Altium Designer and supports all standard footprint templates - from simple passive components to QFNs, BGAs, and more. 00:00 Introduction 00:46 IPC-7351 Standard 01:04 Example: SOIC-8 01:19 Datasheet Information 02:01 Footprint Library 02:17 IPC Compliant Footprint Wizard 04:08 Additional Parameters 05:56 Final Footprint 06:16 Outro For more PCB Layout videos, click here:    • PCB Layout   For more Tech Consultant Philip Salmony from Phil's Lab videos, click here:    • Tech Consultant Philip Salmony from Phil's...   For more PCB Design for Beginnersvideos, click here:    • PCB Design for Beginners   👉 15 Days Free Altium Designer Access: https://www.altium.com/yt/philslab Don't forget to follow us on social to stay up-to-date on the latest Altium Academy content. 👉 Follow Altium on Twitter:   / altium   👉 Follow Altium on Linkedin:   / altium   👉 Follow Altium on Facebook:   / altiumofficial   The Altium Academy is an online experience created to bring modern education to PCB Designers and Engineers all across the world.
