Treat Flux like your intern. Tell it what you'd like to build and it'll get to work. You can also ask it questions, brainstorm ideas, and teach it your preferences. Learn More
Flux is a powerful tool for designing and simulating electronic circuits, creating schematics, and laying out PCBs. Here’s a brief guide to get you started:
Creating an Account
Sign Up: Visit Flux.ai signup to create an account. You can sign up with your email and password or link your Google account.
Designing Schematics
Add Components: Utilize the component library to drag and drop components onto the canvas. You can search for specific parts.
Place Components: Position the components in the desired locations.
Connect Components: Use the wire tool to connect the pins of different components, following the connection format $Connect , R1:1 , to , C1:1$.
Laying Out PCBs
Switch to PCB Layout: After completing the schematic, switch to the PCB layout mode.
Position Components: Drag your components into the preferred locations on the board.
Route Traces: Use the routing tools to connect pads/pins according to your schematic.
Simulation
Run Simulations: You can simulate your circuit to check its behavior. There is a tutorial available to learn how to run simulation models inside Flux.
Additional Resources
Video Tutorials: Explore Flux’s YouTube library for tutorials and recorded events related to using Flux.
Live Support: For live support, head to the Flux home page and use the “Contact us” option at the bottom of the page.
Getting Help
Slack Community: If you have questions or run into issues, you can join the Flux Slack community to ask questions directly to the Flux team and other users.
If you have any specific questions or need help with a particular part of the process, feel free to ask!
