The following models types can be used: Schematic symbol It is the models that contain the detailed information needed by each design domain. Read more about Understanding Models, Components and Libraries.Įach component is a collection of linked models, and parametric component data. The component that you buy and solder onto the board is the real component, but that component has to be modeled in each of the electronic design domains that you want to use it in.ĭepending on what type of design implementations you plan to perform, your component could include: a symbol for the schematic a simulation model for the circuit simulator an IBIS model for signal integrity analysis a pattern or footprint for PCB layout and a 3D model for visualization, 3D clearance checking and export to the mechanical CAD domain. While it might not be exciting, the components become a valuable resource for your company, and it's essential that they a ccurately represent the real-world component. However, a large part of the work, and to many designers the more tedious part, is creating the components. The rewarding part of product development is coming up with cool ways of solving those engineering challenges, connecting those components to craft your unique design. “We really support the simplicity aspect when it comes to development and design, and the combination of our EFM32 MCU portfolio paired with tools that make everything readily available for the designer is a key aspect when customers choose a product platform”.An electronics design is a collection of connected components. “Altium’s solution is a fresh and unified tool for electronics design,” said Øyvind Grotmol, Senior Engineering Director, Software for Silicon Labs’ Microcontroller business group. Energy Micro built their EFM32 microcontrollers around the 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 with FPU, Cortex-M3 and Cortex-M0+ processor cores, which enable low active power consumption, reduced processing time, very fast wake-up time and ultra-low standby current. The EFM32 products are extremely energy efficient 32-bit microcontrollers suitable for ultra-low-power applications.
The release of EFM32 libraries for board-level design covers the entire Gecko microcontroller range with over 240 scalable MCU options. AltiumLive also provides access to a host of design-related content including training and design tips videos, reference designs and a large range of documentation resources. Corresponding component price and availability data is drawn directly from vendor and supplier web services.
A component model hosted in AltiumLive includes the schematic symbol, PCB footprint and a detailed 3D model for 3D mechanical integration during the PCB design process.
