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 Tiny 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 CircuitMaker being one of the top FREE 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 CircuitMaker
I show you how to download and install Altium CircuitMaker as well as demystify the user interface.
I take you step-by-step on how to find and download the component library for the Tiny Arduino.
How to recreate the Arduino Nanite Schematic in Altium CircuitMaker as well as wiring components in Schematic view
I show you how to transfer your schematic into PCB view as well as define the board shape
Once the board shape is defined, I show you how to place components on the board, create a multilayer board ( we are going to use 4-6 layers) .
For a 4 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 autoroute, 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 iterations
Finally 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.

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 8 years ago I started my online school called Augmented Startups where I have over 100'000 subscribers on YouTube and over 60'000 students on Augmented AI Bootcamp/Udemy.I’ve worked with popular tools such as TensorFlow Keras, Open...
It was the best investment of time and a very good resource for thoose who are getting started with pcb design
Good explaination
The course is excellent. But I didn't like the software. It's not easy to use, has a lot of bugs, and a very poor environment. My laptop has decent specs but still, it lags a lot.
I tried Eagle free version and it came out to be outstanding. That's why took an Eagle course available on udemy and now enjoying a lot.
Moving from Circuit maker to Eagle feel like I get a ton of power and speed.
So, if you like Circuit Maker and worked on it, this course is definitely for you. But, if you are new to PCB design, think twice.
Yes, I needed the Project-beginning-to-end approach
it was good but it somewhere lacked details oh how did few steps that was visible but we could not understand what button he pressed to do that. also, he must have done every step with the reasoning in much detail that why its done. overall,it was quite a knowlegable course.
A great introduction to a powerful free tool for hobbyists and makers. Definitely worth the time and money!
So far the lectures are easy to follow. The instructor taught in a step by step manner, without skipping steps. That's why it is easy to follow.
This is not a course for beginners of pcb design. It is waaay to complex pcb for a beginner, at least in regards to the size of the course. I think the course could have been much better if an easier design was choosen.
Best practice in PCB-design isn't followed either, for example:
- Using advanced PCB technologies such as blind vias without mentioning it. This can be pricey and a lot of manufacturers actually won't accept it.
- Not keeping distance to the border of the pcb, might give problems with short-circuit between layers... not good.
- Using auto-router instead of manual routing when there is 13 components. Would have been much more interesting course to learn routing. Also fixes a lot of routing errors fast and without good explanations.
I learned a few things with CircuitMaker, but I would not recommend this course to anyone.
Great course to get familiar with the software. There is some differences in the software that was a bit annoying, but if you search around you can find out how to do the same actions covered in the exercise. I would really like to see a post on uploading to any pcb manufacturer site and negotiating differences to fit their process or nomenclature. If you are not sure, just take the course. It is very short, but you will have real usable skills by the time you are done and can build your own board. Maybe try jlcb pcb for small protos as they can be cheap for practice boards.

Quick instructions, without going into too much details.
Nice introductory course.
