It’s easy to define profit, but it’s much more difficult to define exactly what “design for profitability” (DFP) means to today’s PCB designers and design engineers. How can technologists create profit in every design when the board’s stakeholders are often spread out across several time zones and continents? In the March issue of Design007 Magazine, we asked our experts to weigh in on the best DFP strategies and how this can affect the entire PCB development cycle.

Connect the Dots: Involving Manufacturers Earlier Prevents Downstream Issues
04/16/2025 | Matt Stevenson -- Column: Connect the DotsIf you have read any of my earlier columns, you know I am passionate about helping designers design for the reality of manufacturing. Designing for manufacturability (DFM) is a team sport. DFM is a design process that looks forward to the manufacturing process and integrates with it so that manufacturing requirements and capabilities can be accurately reflected in the design work.
Global PCB Connections: The Next Wave of HDI PCBs– How Design Engineers Can Stay Ahead
04/17/2025 | Jerome Larez -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsHigh density interconnect (HDI) printed circuit boards have come a long way from their origins as a niche technology for miniaturized applications. Today, HDI PCBs are at the forefront of innovation, driven by an insatiable demand for faster, smaller, and more powerful electronic devices. As consumer electronics, 5G infrastructure, and AI-driven systems advance, design engineers must stay ahead of the curve to ensure their PCB designs meet evolving industry demands.
