DbLink Demystified
Tucked away in the File » New » Libraries sub menu of Altium Designer is a mysterious Database Link file (.DbLink). It is a much underutilized feature which can be a great benefit those with a company database and have little or no permission for direct use of it in the PCB design process. With the proper set up, the DbLink is capable of updating the parametric data of existing components in the schematic with an external database.
In this video, we will discuss:
• The differences between the DbLib and the DbLink.
• How Altium Designer matches components with database information
• How to make use of the DbLink file
This is a "must see" for anyone needing to access the company database for its information, design a library that is flexible to SPICE simulation work, or is using SOLIDWORKS PCB.
