Louis Wells - Stryker
Course - PCB Circuit Design with Altium
The topic is very interesting specially when the trainer started to introduce the basic functions, panels and shortcut keys. We really enjoyed the good features of 2D and 3D tools that allow the team to easily toggle and getting the idea of what the board will actually look like after assembled.
