I'm sure this question has been asked before, but searching this forum (and google) is not helping me. I'm trying to get started with some PCB design and find myself in need of a tutorial.  Is there any autodesk documentation? I've done a small bit of PCB design in KiCAD and what helped me there was a tutorial that walked me through the steps, in the logical order -  Start a schematic, Search for schematic symbols (or create your own), Assign an existing PCB footprint to the symbol (or create your own), Connect the parts on the schematic, Import into the physical layout tool, Place the physical footprints,  Route the nets, Add silkscreen, etc.  The tutorial had details for each step. It was written (not video), so I could easily reference it as I plodded through my first board.

 

Does something like this exist? And why is it so darned hard to find?

Hi @mike4nospam,

 

There isn't a written guide like this yet, but it is being worked on. For now these two playlists serve as good introductions.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.
