Altium Designer 6's intelligent interactive routing system has been enhanced with a new interactive length-tuning tool for high-speed designs.


Altium Designer 6's intelligent interactive routing system has been enhanced with a new interactive length-tuning tool for high-speed designs. It reportedly allows designers to quickly optimize optimize - optimisation  and control net lengths by inserting "accordion accordion, musical instrument consisting of a rectangular bellows expanded and contracted between the hands. Buttons or keys operated by the player open valves, allowing air to enter or to escape. The air sets in motion free reeds, frequently made of metal. " segments into a track. Tuning can be manual or rules-driven, and designers can select from several amplitude amplitude (ăm`plĭtd'), in physics, maximum displacement from a zero value or rest position.  styles. This feature is said to combine seamlessly with impedance-controlled, differential pair Differential pair is a pair of conductors with special characteristics, used for differential signaling.

Examples of the differential pair include:
  • twisted-pair cables, shielded and unshielded
 and multi-trace routing capabilities.
