The first -PCB_Project1.PrjPCB - contains the complete set of the schematics for the two Printed Circuit Boards. Multiple PCBs in one project doesn't have to be hard, this will help, trust me.Ĭonsider the Design Workspace in the figure below.

The secret to amalgamating the schematics is to have a third project for the overall layout design that doesn’t target a board, but acts as the design project for the multi-circuit boards system. So in order to have related schematics populate different circuit boards, we first need to have multiple PCB Projects (PrjPCB), one for each board we are targeting. In other words, each PCB project targets only a single board. Here’s how.Īt the time of publishing, Altium currently supports only one PCB per PCB Project. It’s enough of a scenario, and it’s reasonably simple to achieve in Altium Designer ®. In this multi-circuit boards design project he wanted to work from a single schematic package, yet have a subset of the schematics populate two different printed boards.

I was working with a customer recently who had two PCBs that were related.
