    First time with press fit assembly

    The board I worked on had press fit on upper and lower edge so the template was for the entire board. I think as long as the SMT components near the press fit is not too tall them the recommended clearance is probably fine, but it all depends on how the template is made too. I am not an expert...

    First time with press fit assembly

    I did couple of them while back also. The fixture was provided by the customer so I'm not sure what the cost is, but it was fairly simple metal plate with holes for the connectors so you can use a press to just push the connector together. I think only problem I ran into was not specifying the...

    ALTIUM: DXF Import for component PCB.LIB

    I believe Altium had issue with DXF import directly to where you would make the footprint. I believe I called it into the board data then copied it over to the footprint. I haven't used Altium for a while so if it doesn't make sense please ignore it.

    How to create Castellated SMT pads using Altium Designer

    Can you not just use a plated hole with pad and place the center on the board edge? I'm not sure, but I don't think you'll be able to make a half plated hole. Then again Altium has suprised me before with some of their stuff. I don't use Altium enough to know for sure, but I know in other...

    [SOLVED] Solder mask, same as permanent polymer coating?

    So is it ok to route solder mask covered traces closer as long as the exposed pads meet the required distance? For example, I am required to have 3mm of gap with exposed copper, but only 1mm if it's covered. Would I be able to route the traces under solder mask at 1 mm spacing as long as...

    How do you avoid routing in between pins of SMD components in Altium?

    How about creating footprints with keepouts between the pads? That way it will always be there rather than having to set it up every time?

    Zuken CR5000 Library export

    Hello all, My situation is that I have the board data (.pcb, .rul) and the netlist in .ccf format. We do not have the library that is used on the board and when I try to forward annotate I get the error saying "error 43052: Part is unregistered in library. [ Part name = 502426-4010 ] [ part...

    Back annotation in Schematic

    I was wondering if anyone had problems back annotating after pin swap. When I back annotate pin swap in the BGA with a NC pin then the back annotation is not done correct. Have anyone encountered this problem? For example, pin from block one is moved to block 4 or vice versa. Also had...

    Allegro users---Is there snap to pad edge type command

    I did not have any luck with the previous post. It keeps measuring the nearest grid point. Am I missing something?

    Problem with Allegro..(urgent)

    I would think contacting Cadence support would be the fastest solution. If you were able to do it before, then maybe reinstall? I suggest the support they are pretty responsive.
