The author, SANTHOSH RANGASAMY, works at Infineon. He has over 15 years of experience in PCB layout designing and package design, PCB 3D layout simulation, DFM, DFA & DFT for PCB.
The printed circuit board (PCB) industry continues to expand and evolve, with designers now facing heightened challenges postCovid, including component end-of-life issues and supply chain uncertainties.
The demand for flawless, first-attempt designs has never been higher.
This series is designed to guide PCB engineers in creating innovative and manufacturable designs while navigating the complexities of modern product development. For those new to PCB design or with limited experience, understanding the principles of 'Designing for Reality' is critical. This approach emphasises robust methodologies that ensure reliability, manufacturability, and compliance with diverse design requirements.
Success depends on meticulous attention to detail. PCB design is shaped by unwritten rules, best practices, and varying manufacturer-specific requirements. Visiting manufacturing facilities is a valuable step towards grasping the nuances of board production, which can differ significantly depending on the classification and design specifications.
By partnering with reliable manufacturers and developing a deep understanding of production fundamentals, designers can overcome challenges and consistently achieve functional, cost-effective design-seven as projects grow more complex.
