Usually I place my copper planes then run tracks from components that are common to that plane by using VIAs. This method is known as a fanout. In this video you will learn how to place VIAs and create fanout in Altium.
Who this tutorial series is for
Anyone who is using an ECAD software tool and wants to understand the idea of making a PCB from a schematic. This is especially useful for beginners looking to get started with PCB Design. Example PCB software would be the popular ones, like Cadence Allegro/OrCAD, Mentor Graphics PADS/Xpedition, KiCAD, Autodesk EAGLE, or even Altium (20 or previous versions). Makers, hobbyists, Arduino enthusiasts.
