The Design 1 course covers hardware design concepts and tools used to prepare students for Design 2. Here they learn the basics of integrating multiple circuits into one design, and eventually designing that onto their own printed circuit board using Altium Designer software. Students receive a substantial parts kit to perform all the design modules.
