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 DesignerI 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 viewI show you how to transfer your schematic into PCB view as well as define the board shapeOnce 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 iterationsFinally 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 GuaranteeThe 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'vedone for thousands of my other students.
Who this course is for:
Learn basic to intermediate PCB designWant to create your own custom Arduino Printed Circuit Board (PCB).
Want to get a job in PCB designWant to learn Altium Designer in the shortest possible time.
Want to get started creating cool gadgetsHave a tech kickstarter idea, that you want to get of the ground

So a bit about me, Ritesh Kanjee: I've graduated from University of Johannesburg as an Electronic Engineer with a Masters in Image Processing and 4 years ago I started my online school called Augmented Startups where I have over 73'000 subscribers on YouTube and over 50'000 students on Augmented AI Bootcamp/Udemy.
Ive worked with popular tools such as TensorFlow Keras, Open CV, and PyTorch and Ive also produced High ranking tutorials that feature on Google and YouTube. My Machine Learning Series is also one of the most viewed videos, over 300 thousand views and youll find them ranked right at the top on YouTube search results.
From my tutorials, I have received a lot of great feedback and testimonials from students all around the world, I will share those reviews towards the end of the video
And I have also presented at international conferences and meetups in AI. For industry standard AI, I have partnered up with Geeky Bee AI who are Experts in the field in AI and Deep Learning and have experience developing AI apps for real world applications.

It was nice

By Priyadarshini on 6/21/2020

YES, Could understand better to implement practically

By Nilanjan Talukder on 5/9/2020

Learned Alot about the PCB Designing would a little better if a little more insight was available regarding the Design related questions

By Erwin Mazwardi on 4/3/2020

The instructions were too fast. I had to repeat so many times, which was very annoying.

By Omar Andr Gutirrez Cardona on 2/17/2020

Exelente curso, muy prctico, se entiende muy bien el uso del software para uso basico

By Tamilmani M on 2/1/2020

I post my doubts more than two weeks i didn't receive any reply from instructor. Very much disappointed

By Sagar Saxena on 1/6/2020

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.

By Karthik Selvan on 10/23/2019

Rather than auto-routing, manual routing tutorial would have been much fascinating. However, I enjoyed the course well.

By Danie Claassen on 10/21/2019

Detailed information and well presented

By T. Seth Edwards on 10/21/2019

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!

By Juan Fernandez on 10/13/2019

I book this course thinking it would give a more professional Overview of PCB Design in Altium, unfortunately it didn't.
At the end is a basic course you can also get for free from Youtube and it is done with Altium but is very general.
For me main things missing is:
- Working with Library Database
- More Information about the Schematics Design with working with templates, project parameters, etc
- More Information about the Layout design Layer Stack Manager, more deeply in rules, etc
Also the narrative and the peace is not think at all. You are 5 minutes watching how the teacher fills parameters and how to open that dialog is done within 5 seconds.
I do not like to leave bad reviews but I had a really bad experience with that course.
