Elementary, Mr. Watson: Ensuring Design Integrity
03/28/2024 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonBack in February, many of us watched the "Big Game." It reminded me of the saying, “It's not how you start that is important, but rather how you finish." It is perfectly okay when you are talking about sports, you get off to a bad first half and need to recover in the second half. However, when it comes to PCB design, this is not a good practice. If things start badly, they usually don't recover. They continue down that same path, costing more money and losing design time.

Connect the Dots: Choosing the Right CAD Tool
10/26/2023 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsEvery profession has its tools. Painters use brushes, mechanics have socket wrenches, and parlor magicians have long sleeves. For PCB designers, the tool of the trade is CAD software. Designers spend hours, days, or weeks in their CAD tool for each circuit board design. They thoroughly check each connection, plot every through-hole, and carefully place components. This process inevitably reveals that not all CAD tools are created equally.
