3D Model View in Altium

One step model for the shield fence was used in this design, all other parts are extruded 3D body objects.



Miniature 2.4GHz Transceiver PCB designed by Randy Clemmons CID+.

No additional CAD tools are needed to create the extruded bodies other than Altium.

In Altium exporting a 3D Step Model of your PCB is as simple as saving a file.

As shown above you can make very realistic parts using extruded shapes. The Baluns, Caps, and Filters look very good considering they are 3D extruded body objects..

Video rendering in 3D is significantly faster if you minimize the number of linked step models and use extruded shapes in Altium.
