EMA Webinar: Don’t Let Your Design Data Manage You
February 5, 2019 | EMA Design AutomationEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
With the mounting pressure engineers face to make everything "better, faster, cheaper, smaller" in less time, managing your design data can seem like the least of your concerns. However, data management issues can sink a project just as fast as any design flaw. Effectively managing your design data is a critical piece to ensuring overall project success.
Don’t learn through trial-and-error. Register now for this free webinar, scheduled for Wednesday, February 20, 2019 at 2 pm EDT. Get the critical design data management tips and best practices info you need from the experts at EMA Design Automation and xPLM.
Attendees will learn:
- Why PCB design data management is the key to sustained design success
- Common issues and points of failure as well as how to identify and overcome them
- How to ensure BOM, Design, and Part data are always up-to-date and in-sync
- Why connecting your data to the rest of the organization is important
- How to easily and effectively manage your design data directly inside your CAD environment

Digital Twin Concept in Copper Electroplating Process Performance
07/11/2025 | Aga Franczak, Robrecht Belis, Elsyca N.V.PCB manufacturing involves transforming a design into a physical board while meeting specific requirements. Understanding these design specifications is crucial, as they directly impact the PCB's fabrication process, performance, and yield rate. One key design specification is copper thieving—the addition of “dummy” pads across the surface that are plated along with the features designed on the outer layers. The purpose of the process is to provide a uniform distribution of copper across the outer layers to make the plating current density and plating in the holes more uniform.

The Shaughnessy Report: Showing Some Constraint
07/14/2025 | Andy Shaughnessy -- Column: The Shaughnessy ReportWhen we first decided to cover strategies for setting PCB design constraints, one designer we spoke with said, “They’re not really constraints; they’re more like guardrails that prevent your design from going off a cliff.”
