IC & PCB Engineering

Note

ITMO University course: "Системы Автоматизированного Проектирования" (Computer-Aided Design Systems)

Course Structure

Two main assignments:

• hw1 - Hybrid Integrated Circuits (film resistors, capacitors, transistors)
• hw2 - 2-Layer PCB Design + Self-Created Design Guide (see hw2/guide.pdf)

Important

I created a comprehensive design guide (hw2/guide.pdf) since no official documentation was provided by the teacher. This guide covers the complete PCB design workflow and hw2 assignment tutorial.
