Altium Designer 20 features new "push and shove" capabilities that enable routing of complex HDI boards and speed design times over 20%.

New advanced routing enables efficient design of high-density and high-speed boards that utilize DDR3/4/5, 100GB ethernet and SerDes PCIe 4.0/5.0. Leverages ActiveBOMTM capabilities, including supplier search, BoM rule checking, and live part choices for multi-board assemblies. Exports 3-D PDF files of the multi-board assembly, allowing collaborators to view and manipulate 3-D assemblies. New creepage rules help maintain high-voltage clearances across PCB surfaces for prevention of electrical arcing hazards for power supply and mixed-signal device designs. Faster, dynamic compilation of data across schematic, layout, BoM generation, design documentation, and other elements.
