Creating the Ideal Data Package
The May 2025 issue of Design007 Magazine explores the best practices for creating the ideal data package.
There's no "one size fits all" approach to creating the perfect PCB design data package. Our expert contributors share their views on composing a complete and accurate document set ideal for your design.
Special feature: Go In-depth with… MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions
Ebad Rehman and Beth Turner detail the company’s latest developments in high-reliability alloys for the automotive industry.
Other highlights:
- Zero Touch Data Package: Dana Korf lays out his vision for a data package that requires as little human interaction as possible.
- Circle of Concern or Circle of Influence: John Watson explains how Stephen Covey’s “7 Habits” concept relates to designing your output package.
- From Dream House to Drill Files: As Kelly Dack notes, the PCB design environment is perfect, much like the pink world in the Barbie movie. But hard reality awaits when your design reaches the manufacturer.
- Defining the Ideal Data Output: Before creating the perfect data package, you have to define the exact requirements for your particular board.
