Circuit Board Template

charlessXNBDU — Thu, 13 Apr 2023 01:15:53 GMT

Is there a means to create a template for circuit boards in Fusion360 electronics? We need to design to a defined board size, with defined NPT holes, and mechanicals (connects, etc.) aligned to a defined specification. Best we can find is copy and paste, thus far.

Hi @charlessXNBDU ,

I hope this message finds you well. There's a few ways to do this, if you need a consistent board shape with basic mechanicals. The easiest way to do it is to save a sch/brd design with the minimum configuration.

Once you have it then when you make a new design you can link to the minimum config sch and board as copies and work from there.

Pretty straightforward.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Best Regards,

Thanks. I decided to use that process to create baseboards. It works. It is not as smooth a process where I have an existing schematic and board I want to resize to a standard baseboard.
