Beyond the Rulebook
What happens when the rule book is no longer useful, or worse, was never written in the first place? In today’s fast-moving electronics landscape, we’re increasingly asked to design and build what has no precedent, no proven path, and no tidy checklist to follow. This is where “Design for Invention” begins.
March Madness
From the growing role of AI in design tools to the challenge of managing cumulative tolerances, these articles in this issue examine the technical details, design choices, and manufacturing considerations that determine whether a board works as intended.

New Book Strengthens the Relationship Between Designer and Manufacturer
July 18, 2023 | I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 1 minute
I-007eBooks is pleased to announce the release of the latest book in its The Printed Circuit Designer’s Guide to…™ series.
The Printed Circuit Designer's Guide to... Manufacturing Driven Design, brought to you by Siemens and I-007eBooks, introduces a new process workflow for optimizing your design in a way that is a distinct evolution from DFM.
Author Max Clark explores some of the factors that present challenges to an efficient DFM process. While some hurdles are internal, it is often the manufacturing processes required to make various technologies that complicate the design review process. Readers will learn some useful anecdotes and be better able to understand that the path forward is one that strengthens the relationship between designer and manufacturer.
According to peer reviewer Ammar Abusham, “This book effectively addresses the need for early integration of manufacturing elements into the design process. In an industry racing against time, MDD is the key to staying ahead.”
