Applicable Industries	Electronics Renewable Energy
Applicable Functions	Product Research & Development
Use Cases	Time Sensitive Networking
Challenge	Morgan Solar, founded in 2007, has been on a mission to make solar energy the most widely used and affordable power source in the world. However, the solar market has been changing rapidly, with product costs decreasing significantly over the past decade. This has increased the urgency for Morgan Solar to develop and patent newer, more efficient solar energy solutions. The company has had to consistently innovate to keep up with the fast-paced industry and stay ahead of the curve. The challenge was to accommodate less forgiving production timelines and increase product turnover, while maintaining the quality and efficiency of their solar panels and solar tracking systems.

About Customer	Morgan Solar is a company that was established in 2007 with the vision of making unsubsidized solar energy more competitive, accessible, and cost-effective for a global market. Their goal is to make solar energy the most widely used and affordable power source in the world. They hold patents on state-of-the-art solar panels and solar tracking systems. The company is known for its innovative approach in a rapidly changing industry, consistently developing technologies that push the boundaries of solar energy production. They strive to stay ahead of the curve in an industry where product costs have decreased significantly over the past decade. Read More
Solution	To address these challenges, Morgan Solar turned to Altium software. Altium Designer provided the engineers with tools that increased design productivity, were easy to learn and use, and helped streamline everyday design workflows. The software allowed the engineers to optimize component placement and create their own set of rules in the schematic. Automated routing technology like ActiveRoute enabled the team to route boards quickly and accurately without worrying about variances in voltage, current density, or determining how much space is needed for clearance. The Find Similar Objects dialogue also gave designers the ability to easily set up search criteria that uses the attributes of target objects as a reference for finding similar objects, saving considerable design time.
