Altium Designer is an EDA software package for printed circuit board design. It is developed and marketed by Altium Limited of Australia.

Schematic capture
Schematic capture module provides electronics circuit editing functionality, including :
 * Component library management
 * Schematic document editing (component placement, connectivity editing and design rules definition)
 * SPICE mixed-signal circuit simulation
 * Netlist export.

PCB design
Printed circuit board design module of Altium designer allows :
 * Component footprint library management
 * Component placement
 * Manual trace routing, with support for differential pairs and pin-swapping
 * Automatic trace routing
 * Interactive 3D view of the board
 * Signal integrity analysis
 * Manufacturing files generation with support for Gerber and ODB++ formats

FPGA and embedded software tools
FPGA development tools integrated into Altium designer provide the following capabilities:
 * FPGA and schematics design synchronization
 * VHDL simulation and debugging
 * FPGA soft processor software development tools (compiler, debugger, profiler) for several embedded processors
