Altium Develop keeps your design data organized and visible to the whole team β€” from populated title blocks and accurate part numbers to DRC-clean layouts ready for manufacturing: altium.com/develop?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=one-minute-pcb-design-reviews&utm_content=usb-type-b-in-2025-1-min-pcb-design-review

Tech Consultant Zach Peterson reviews a maze-solving robot PCB that brings a surprising throwback: a USB Type-B connector. While this four-layer design passes its design rule check with zero DRC errors, Zach identifies several areas for improvement that every PCB designer should know. From an empty title block that wouldn't fly in professional environments to components missing critical part numbers, this review highlights documentation practices that separate hobbyist projects from production-ready designs.
