Preface
Autodesk Fusion 360 is a product of Autodesk Inc. Fusion 360 is the first of its kind software which combines PCB Design, 3D CAD, CAM, and CAE tools in single package. It connects your entire product development process in a single cloud-based platform that works on both Mac and PC. The PCB environment of Fusion 360 provides a seamless connection between schematic design, 2D PCB and 3D PCB. Using the 2D PCB, you can create manufacturing data of design that can be sent to PCB manufacturer to get physical PCB. You can also use the 3D CAD environment of Fusion 360 to modify the orientation and placement of various electronic components in PCB design.
The Autodesk Fusion 360 Black Book (V 2.0.18719) is 1st edition of our series on Autodesk Fusion 360 PCB. The book is updated on Autodesk Fusion 360 Ultimate, Student V 2.0.18719.
