Every PCB project relies on signal routing for reliable performance. Incorrect routing can lead to reflections, EMI, and signal degradation, even if the schematic is correct. Mastering these skills ensures that your designs work reliably—from USB circuits to general high-speed electronics.This course focuses on practical techniques to design reliable signal routing in multilayer PCBs, with a hands-on approach using KiCAD. Through a structured, demo-driven curriculum, you will learn controlled impedance routing, differential pair layout, noise reduction, and high-speed routing best practices. By following a consistent USB-to-UART project, you will see each concept applied directly, enabling you to design boards that are functional, reliable, and manufacturable.
