"What do you expect from me, anyway?" How many times have you asked your customer or fabricator that question? You’re not alone. Almost everyone involved in PCB design and manufacturing—especially fabricators—has had to deal with unmet expectations. This month in Design007 Magazine, our experts discuss the expectations of technologists throughout the design cycle, the ramifications of not meeting expectations, and how to define requirements so that unmet expectations are (eventually) a thing of the past.
It’s tough enough achieve the results you expect when designing and manufacturing rigid PCBs. But flexible circuit designers face even more hurdles, and in three dimensions. This month, in our Flex007 section, our flex circuit experts discuss various ways to meet expectations upstream and downstream, and what to do when results just don’t match the requirements.
