How many PCB projects can Altium support?
At the time of publishing, Altium currently supports only one PCB per PCB Project. In other words, each PCB project targets only a single board. So in order to have related schematics populate different circuit boards, we first need to have multiple PCB Projects (PrjPCB), one for each board we are targeting.
How are two printed boards used in Altium Designer?
In this multi-board design project he wanted to work from a single schematic package, yet have a subset of the schematics populate two different printed boards. It’s enough of a scenario, and it’s reasonably simple to achieve in Altium Designer ®. Here’s how.
Do you need to have multiple PCB projects?
So in order to have related schematics populate different circuit boards, we first need to have multiple PCB Projects (PrjPCB), one for each board we are targeting.
How to switch to rigid flex mode in Altium?
Rigid-Flex is under active development. To switch to Rigid-Flex 2 mode, enable the following options in the Advanced Settings dialog: PCB.RigidFlex2.0 – enables the Rigid-Flex 2 features in Board Planning Mode. Note that in previous releases of Altium Designer this option was called Legacy.PCB.RigidFlex.
How to move a circuit to a different sheet in Altium?
Edit » Refactor » Move Selected Sub-circuit to Different Sheet – use this command to move the selected components and wiring to a different sheet in the project. The Choose Destination Document dialog will open, allowing you to choose any existing schematic in the project. This command is described in more detail below.
Where does the schematic filename go in Altium?
It is the Filename property of the Sheet Symbol that references the lower-level sheet. Note that this field should only include the schematic filename, not the path to that file’s location (this location data is actually stored in the Project file).
