PCB Design Online Course

Embark on a journey into PCB design with this course, designed to transform beginners into skilled professionals. You’ll start with an introduction to printed circuit boards, Eagle software installation, and initial project setup before moving step by step into schematic creation and external library integration. As you progress, you’ll design both single-sided and double-sided PCBs, learning best practices for component placement and copper pours. Practical experience is gained through a microcontroller PCB project and working with surface mount technology (SMT) components, preparing you for real-world design challenges. Advanced lessons cover creating custom library components, using the autorouter, and preparing designs for manufacturing.

Finally, you’ll master the generation of Gerber files and bills of materials, ensuring your projects are production-ready.
