Altium hits the road in the US and Canada

New seminar series will demonstrate the potential of programmable hardware

SYDNEY, Australia – August 22, 2007 – Altium Limited (ASX: ALU), the electronics design industry’s leading developer of unified electronic product development solutions, is holding a seminar road show in 16 cities across the United States and Canada in October and November.

The sessions will unveil the powerful new features of Altium Designer and how they combine with Altium’s Desktop NanoBoard reprogrammable development platform, to give electronics design engineers new ways to design products. Altium Designer offers a unified approach to developing electronics products which allows for shorter development cycles, more intelligent designs and new opportunities for software and hardware engineers.

The sessions will include a practical workshop to demonstrate the potential of FPGAs. Engineers already conversant with FPGAs will gain insights into new design techniques, and newcomers to FPGAs will gain an understanding of how to tap their potential.

The seminars are open to embedded and software engineers, board-level engineers, electronics product designers, and systems engineers.

Online registration is www.altium.com/usseminars or contact Altium at 1800 544 4186 in the United States.

About Altium Designer

Altium Designer is the electronics design industry’s only electronics product development system that removes the barriers imposed by disparate design flows and unifies the different design disciplines involved in electronics product development – the design of the hardware, the programmable hardware and the embedded software. Altium Designer’s unified design environment means users can harness the potential of the latest electronics technologies, and move to a ‘soft’ design methodology without specialist programmable device expertise. This provides companies with increased design flexibility, reduced production costs and shortened time to market. Altium Designer also delivers the freedom to move between any device, from any vendor, at any time. It lowers total cost of ownership by eliminating the need to integrate additional devices at extra cost to increase functionality, or to create a complete solution.
