Read Article Pi.MX8 Project - Board Layout Part 4 Welcome to a new installment on the Pi.MX8 compute module SoM project! In this update we will be putting the finishing touches to our PCB design and getting the design ready for prototype production. In the last article we completed the routing of the signal layers. This was the most time-consuming part of the PCB layout for the Pi.MX8 module. However, we still have two tasks ahead of us that require just as much care: routing the power planes Read Article The Ultimate Introduction to High-Speed Signal Integrity for PCB Designers Basics of Signal Integrity Signal integrity refers to the quality and reliability of electrical signals as they travel through a PCB (Printed Circuit Board). In high-speed PCB design, maintaining signal integrity is critical because even minor signal distortions can lead to data corruption, communication errors, and overall system failure. Factors such as impedance mismatches, crosstalk, signal reflections, and power fluctuations can Read Article Which Electronic Components Can Reduce PCB Cost? Printed circuit board (PCB) design is continuously advancing, requiring electronics designers to deliver new functionality and reliability while always keeping a focus on cost efficiency. By understanding the relationship between choosing components and the effect on PCB costs, designers and engineers can make better decisions when optimizing their designs for performance and cost. This article explores various classifications of electronic Read Article What Makes the Life Sciences Supply Chain Different? The life sciences supply chain is unique due to its complexity, high stakes, and the critical role it plays in patient care and public health. It handles a wide range of items, including pharmaceuticals, medical devices, diagnostics, and biologics, each with unique requirements for storage, handling, and transportation. Key aspects that set the life sciences supply chain apart include: Complexity and Regulation: The products it handles are often Read Article Advanced Forecasting for Reducing Inventory Costs In today's competitive business environment, efficient inventory management is a key strategic factor for reducing costs and increasing customer satisfaction. One of the most effective ways to achieve this is through advanced forecasting. The Case for Advanced Forecasting The case for Advanced Forecasting is compelling. It’s a strategic approach that leverages cutting-edge technologies and methodologies to predict future trends and behaviors Read Article PCB Manufacturers Offering the Shortest Turnaround Times With the growing demand for PCBs in just about every electronic device in development, time is of the essence. For manufacturers or even hobbyists, quickly getting hold of a functional prototype can be the difference between success and missed opportunities; as a solution to this time-intensive problem, some manufacturers have started offering quick-turn PCBs. From the editor: The text below lists several companies offering quick-turn PCB Read Article Securing Early Access to Cutting-Edge Components Historically, PCB designers have faced the ongoing challenge of finding the right component for whichever purpose their eventual manufactured PCB will serve. With supply shortages, poor quality parts, and unreliable vendors filling the space, that has proven troublesome. Today, with the oversaturation of the tech market and growing consumer demand for bigger and better, designers now face an even more difficult task: sourcing cutting-edge Read Article Certified Suppliers for Compliant Medical PCBs The medical device industry relies heavily on technology to deliver life-saving treatments and diagnostics.
