How to trace a foil pattern image into Altium 10 ?
« on: April 24, 2012, 07:06:47 pm »
Hi all,

I have a set of foil patterns I would like to trace into a gerber format file with Altium Designer 10. I know eagle can do this. Can Altium, and if so how ?

The cleaned images for the PCB are here

There is a bitmap importer script.

But what is the point. Did you check yet if you can get a hold of that chip ? afaik it is obsolete.... analog devices makes some crosspoint switches but they are not in the package you have.

I got good results from mhtest.com. (No other connection than a satisfied customer.)
