Accurate component data is the lifeblood of successful projects. Yet, many engineers and procurement professionals grapple with unreliable or outdated information in their Bills of Materials (BOMs). This poor data quality can lead to a cascade of problems throughout a product’s lifecycle, affecting everything from design integrity to electronic component procurement to efficiency, costs, and final product quality. Let’s take a look at how poor...

Several key weather incidents have disrupted logistics and manufacturing processes in recent years and significantly impacted supply chains worldwide.  In 2018 and 2022, drought episodes led to critically low water levels in the Rhine, severely limiting inland shipping and choking German industry. Just this past January, FedEx warned of delivery delays due to winter weather, activating contingency plans following “substantial disruptions” at a...

When it comes to the electronic component industry, companies and their internal teams need to figure out how to effectively manage their Bill of Materials (BOM) if they want to achieve profitability and maintain a competitive edge in a highly competitive market. This sentiment is especially true for procurement specialists, for whom BOM management heavily impacts the effort to optimize BOM costs and ensure efficient sourcing of components. Unde...

When it comes to designing new boards, designers and manufacturers regularly contend with component obsolescence; managing component obsolescence is a substantial challenge caused by technological evolution and market demands shifting that, unfortunately, leads to potential disruptions in electronic component procurement, product development, production, and maintenance. To mitigate the risks associated with obsolescence, companies must have...

The design and manufacturing of PCBs is an intricate process, with the engineering Bill of Materials (BOM) being a critical yet often undermined aspect, given less attention than it deserves. While PCB design and manufacturing involve complex technicalities and intricate supply chains, the BOM is pivotal to uniting forces and ensuring smooth and efficient production flow.  Below, we examine BOM's critical role in PCB design and manufacturing and...

Project management and task coordination can be cumbersome. With design teams, project managers, and stakeholders spread across different tools and platforms, it’s difficult to maintain seamless collaboration. What if you could eliminate the need to constantly switch between design software and project management tools? Introducing Altium 365 Jira Integration—a solution that brings your electronics design and project management together in one...

Resistors might seem like humble components, often overlooked in favor of more complex devices like microprocessors or sensors–however, these small yet mighty components play a critical role in ensuring that circuits function smoothly and efficiently. Whether you're designing a simple LED circuit or a complex computer system, resistors are fundamental in controlling voltage, protecting sensitive components, and managing current flow. We'll...
