To better understand the responsibilities of being a component reliability engineer, here are some guidelines and other information on what you can expect.

Choosing the wrong component can cause serious problems for your PCB. Here are some considerations in order to mitigate electronic component vulnerability risks.

To ensure that your printed circuit board design is manufactured in the most efficient and cost effective way, look at these layout tips for PCB panelization.

The whole world gets a little smaller and a little faster every other day. The underlying magic that supports this flow of knowledge is constantly evolving to keep up.

The right clearance and tolerance for your solder mask defined footprints is important so you don't run into any assembly issues.

How do I institute a design for electronics recycling strategy? In this blog, we give you the answers you need.

As PCB design increases in complexity, it is more important than ever that designers use ECAD-MCAD co-design of multi-board PCBs to shorten design schedules.

IoT consumer electronics are everywhere. Learning how to design them and integrate into a home or business environment should be seamless too.

Life cycle assessments of consumer electronics should consider longevity, component tolerances, and potential product use-case diversifications.

Environmental quality function deployment can be achieved with diligence and attention through PCB design and manufacturing.

Design for sustainable consumer electronics can be looked at from an overall view of materials, and a more refined view of what an individual designer might do.

Green product lifecycle management encourages PCB design and manufacturing that accounts for a product’s lifecycle including its eventual discarding.

For designers to stay ahead of the technology development race, they will need concurrent PCB design tools in order to leverage engineering team collaboration.

The use of sustainable electronics materials is environmentally friendly, provides lower manufacturing costs, and increases production.

When comparing PCB cost by layer, be sure to address all of the needs of the application before making any design decisions.

When considering LGA manufacturing, you’ll want to be sure to account for the components you’re using for any kind of consumer electronics.

Conducting an FMEA risk assessment of the components used on your PCB design will help to assure quality and availability before you begin circuit simulation.

You can drastically cut your design time down while at the same time reduce the chance for errors by utilizing engineering productivity and design reuse tools.

FMEA lean manufacturing provides invaluable design insight and reduces cost as well as build times. It also reduces cost, failures and increases production.

Industrial engineering fasteners used in PCB design and manufacturing are as important to the design as the boards and components they secure.
