Many electronic beginners are afraid of designing SMD boards and just stick to through-hole and dip components. The reason for this could be using the wrong electronic designing CAD software.
This video intends to handle you a complete, although simple example of a project using both SMD and through-hole components, design rules, tented vias, ... etc. Finally, you can download the Altium schematic and PCB files and play with them. Besides, you can order the Gerbers (10Pcs for just 5USD), build the project, and enhance your soldering skills.
In this video, I will show you how quickly I designed a simple LED flasher board using Altium Designer. That’s a piece of cake. So let’s get started!
