Getting Started With File Comparison

Getting Started With File Comparison

One major benefit of using a version control system is the ability to compare PCB design revisions against one another. If you’re comparing code, using a code difference tool is relatively straightforward. You’re just comparing text.

But if you are comparing PCB designs, you need a version control system that is electrically intelligent. It’s important to know who made a change, and when they made it. Altium Designer® and Altium 365® make file comparison easy.

You can compare schematics and layouts in detail locally, or through any web browser.

Join us in this webinar where we’ll cover:

  • Advantages of comparing PCB design data
  • What file types can be compared
  • How to locally and remotely compare different versions of your design files
  • How to revert to a previous project version

Timing:

Wednesday, 28th September 2022 | 2:30 PM to 03:30 PM

CAN vs Automotive Ethernet: When to Use Each

CAN and automotive Ethernet answer different questions, so the useful comparison is a decision table rather than a winner. This guide from GSAS Micro Systems sets CAN and CAN FD figures from CAN in Automation next to the IEEE 802.3bw objectives for 100BASE-T1, covers arbitration against switch queues, cost and harness consequences, failure modes on both sides, and what changes on an India bench team's setup when a project adds Ethernet next to the CAN it already runs.

DoIP Routing Activation Failures: The Response Code Table

A DoIP routing activation denial is one byte, and that byte names the cause exactly. This article puts every published response code in one table, cross-checked across the AUTOSAR Classic Platform DoIP specification, the Wireshark dissector and two open-source client libraries, then gives the order a DoIP entity applies its checks so you can read a denial backwards to the configuration value that produced it. Written by the GSAS Micro Systems engineering team in India for diagnostics and validation benches in Bengaluru, Pune, Chennai and Hyderabad.
