Requirements Engineering in Hardware Development
Blog
Let's be honest: very few people get excited about requirements. Yet, every hardware team has felt the cost of unclear requirements: rework that shows up late, or a build that misses what stakeholders actually asked for. Requirements engineering (RE) is the discipline that follows a structured process of defining, documenting, and managing requirements so the final product solves the right problem. When applied well, it catches mistakes early...

Scaling Up: The Benefits of Multi-Seat ECAD for Growing Organizations
Blog
A single designer can move very quickly. The designer knows the files, the libraries, the shortcuts, the project history, and the reasons behind each choice. That model can work well for a small product and a clear schedule.Growth changes the work. A second designer needs the board. A mechanical engineer needs the latest outline. Procurement needs the BOM before release. Manufacturing asks a question while the designer is routing. A project...

Using an IPC-2221 PCB Clearance Calculator for High Voltage Design
Blog

PCB design and assembly standards aren’t there to constrain your productivity. Instead, they’re there to help create uniform expectations of product designs and performance across multiple industries. With standardization comes the tools for compliance, such as calculators for certain design aspects, processes for auditing and inspection, and much more.
In high voltage PCB design, the important generic standard for PCB design is IPC-2221. Many...

GreenPAK vs FPGA vs CPLD: Which Is Right for Your Design?
Blog
Making an ASIC the traditional way is no easy task, but now designers can take control of their component designs with programmable logic. There are three options for designing ASICs: CPLDs, FPGAs, or mixed-signal processors. These three approaches allow a designer to essentially create a custom processor which can even be programmed on the fly.
If none of the available off-the-shelf component options work for your system, which type of...

Getting Started with the GreenPAK Introduction Kit
Blog


As an engineer wearing many hats, I recently put on my firmware cap and tested out the Renesas GreenPAK Programmable Mixed Signal Kit and was rather intrigued. While I’ve dabbled a bit in mixed signal design, I tend to over-engineer solutions with microcontrollers and FPGAs in preference to designing a brand new circuit. Simple clock dividers become complex software. Power sequencing becomes power “state machines” with eventual software overhead...
