Abstract: This research aims to determine an optimized set of parameters for Altium Designer’s built-in autorouting function when applied on two- or more-layer printed circuit board (PCB) designs. An experimental approach is employed, creating a specific PCB layout with pre-placed components. The autorouting function is utilized to generate trace connections between components, with different parameter settings being tested to assess their impact on routing quality, efficiency, and speed. Routing time will be a key metric measured during this evaluation. The resulting autorouted designs will then be compared to a manually routed PCB designed by an engineer, considering factors such as routing neatness and adherence to design rules. This research aims to determine the effectiveness of the autorouting tool in PCB designs while potentially reducing design time.
