Altium Develop unites your PCB designers, supply chain team, and manufacturers in one shared workspace so audio electronics projects move from schematic to prototype without the disconnects: https://www.altium.com/develop?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=one-minute-pcb-design-reviews&utm_content=vias-doing-absolutely-nothing In this 1 Min PCB Design Review, Tech Consultant Zach Peterson examines an audio amplifier PCB and uncovers a series of small but impactful layout issues that hardware designers should watch for in their own boards. Zach reviews a chaotic via arrangement on a 12V polygon, flags ferrite beads dropped onto USB and audio output lines without justification from the datasheet, and explains why those vias scattered across the plane aren't doing their job — some aren't connected to anything, while others suffer from thermal relief connections that defeat their purpose entirely. 🔹 Connect with Zach: Want your design reviewed by Zach?
