Hello Dear Student ,

I welcome you , for Enrolling this Course .

This is basically a Beginners Course with Basic Level Content focused on PCB Design using EasyEDA , a Free & On-Line PCB Design Software and it covers Content with 1-Layer , 2-Layer Through Hole type & SMT type PCB Design & also Multi-layer ( 4-Layer ) PCB Design , as a beginner's reference suitable for Electronics Polytechnic , Engineering & University Students & Hobbyists .

Apart from PCB Design content , Added introductory level content ( At Very Basic Level ) of VHDL Programming using Xilinx ISE Webpack Software a Free Downloadable Software . You may treat the VHDL Basic Level Programming Content as a complementary Content , if you are Electronics Students .

If you are interested in Only PCBDesign Content , you may skip / ignore VHDL Basic Level Programming Content .

All the Content of this Course are based on Free Softwares & either OnLine Or downloadable Softwares for Design / Programming .

1. PCB Design ( 1 Layer , 2 Layer & Multilayer 4 Layer PCB Design Examples ) using a OnLine & Free PCB Design Software “EasyEDA” ,

2. VHDL Programming using Xilinx ISE Webpack , a Free Downloadable Software ( After Registering Your Account with Xilinx Website ) .

At the beginning , the Course Title was “ Step by Step PCB Design for Electronics Projects ” , a Course in PCB Design for Beginner Level .

My approach is to continuously add & update the Content of this Course , so-that it may be helpful specifically to Electronics Polytechnic , Engineering , University Students & also to Hobbyists .

Course Update 1st : ( Feb. 2021 ) : Added Content : VHDL Programming Examples using Xilinx ISE Webpack software .

Course Published ( In Aug. 2020 ) : Content of PCB Design using EasyEDA OnLine PCB Design Software .

Description : This PCB Design Course are developed using a very Popular EasyEDA PCB Design Software , which is a Free , Web based ( OnLine ) Tool & it has huge Components & Part Library. EasyEDA PCB Tool supports to Windows platform , Linux O.S. & also runs on Mac & Android platforms,as long as there is one browser on the O.S. & connecting to Internet.

Video Contents for every stages for Professional PCB Designs are explained with separate & Short Video sessions in a simple way for better understanding,even for the Beginners .

- Schematic Design Stage

- PCB Layout Design Guidelines ( Component Placement Guidelines )

- PCB Layout Design ( Component Placement Stage )

- PCB Design Guidelines ( Track Routing Guidelines , DRCs )

- PCB Design ( Track Routing Stage )

After observing Video sessions & also for the practice purpose , I have added the PDF / Text Documents , called as - “Quick Reference Guide” , which explains the Step by Step Designing Procedure for Single Layer , Double Layer & MultiLayer PCBs for some Examples . Separate Quick Reference Guide is provided to each type of PCBs .

Some Quiz / MCQs – Multiple Choice Questions are also incorporated by adding the separate Document for its Answer Key .

In this course you will learn about -

- Creating Single Layer PCB Design - Two Examples

- Creating Single Layer Surface Mount ( SMT / SMD ) PCB Design - Example .

- Creating Single Layer PCB Design with AutoRouter - Example

- Creating Double Layer PCB Design - Two Examples

- Creating Double Layer Surface Mount ( SMT / SMD ) PCB Design - Example

- Creating Double Layer PCB Design Example with AutoRouter - Example

- Creating Multi-Layer PCB Design - Example

- Creating Schematic Module - Example

- Creating PCB Module - Example

- Creating Schematic Symbol - Example

- Creating Footprint - Example

- Creating Custom Component - Example

• - Creating Big PCB Project - Microcontroller ( 8051 ) based System Design

  ( which is a Multisheet Design having Schematic Modules

  > 8051 Micro-controller with Clock & Reset Circuit

  > DC Power Supply

  > ADC 0804 Circuit

  > 16 x 2 Char. LCD Display )

For Entrepreneurs / who want to start the Business , I have explained the generation of Artwork Files & small Setup for PCB fabrication ( For Single Layer PCB ) .

For Electronics Professionals / Designers , I have explained the Sizable PCB Project of Micro-contoller based System Design . Also PCB Layout Guidelines / PCB Design Guidelines ( Component Placement & Track Routing Guidelines ), DRCs , Crosstalk Issues , Maximizing Grounding , MultiLayer Stackup Planning , Multisheet design etc. will be useful information .

VHDLProgramming Content are explained with some Basic VHDL Programming Examples based on Combinational & Sequential Digital Logic and with Step by Step approach i.e. VHDL Program Code , Synthesis , VHDL Test Bench & Behavioral Simulation .
