Editing PCBs
- [Instructor] Now that I've created this more 3D and mechanical design of my printed circuit board, this can be very useful to make edits and changes, let's say, on the mechanical end of things. So very commonly, a PCB might be fitted into an enclosure of some kind, and we'd need specific clearances and tolerances, and so on, to fit correctly into that enclosure. So that might be the mechanical team's job to make those edits and changes. So what's nice about this is instead of just jumping back and forth through email or talking to your team members, this board shape here is tied directly back to my SOLIDWORKS PCB. So as I make that change here and save it out, it's going to automatically save out and update on my SOLIDWORKS PCB side of things, again, using those Push-Pull tools, as we'll see. So let's take a look at this collaboration and integration now going back to the electrical team. So what I have here, if I take a look at my assembly, is a very simple assembly file. It's…
