Sign up for Mentor’s Oct. 22 Library and Component Management Webinar
October 21, 2015 | Mentor GraphicsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
The PCB is central to systems development, and the quality of your component libraries can have a dramatic impact on product performance, cost and quality. In a survey of the design community, when asked what were the key technologies required to improve their PCB Data Management, the two top items were:
- Centralized Library Management: 91%
- Component Management: 83%
Are you experiencing any of the following challenges?
- Engineers can’t find information on current parts
- No history tracking: who made what change, when, and why
- No process to prevent engineers from using parts that are undesirable or obsolete
- No process to ensure consistency and accuracy of part data
- Inaccurate component data causing BOM issues in manufacturing
- New parts are holding up the design process
If so, please attend the Library and Component Management Webinar at 10 am Eastern on October 22, 2015.
What you Will Learn:
- Component library structure for the Netlist and Integrated Flows
- Suggestions for configuring component libraries efficiently
- How to get started with a new component library
- How xDX DataBook can help you manage component parametric data
- Using tools for updating and maintaining current component data

Fresh PCB Concepts: PCB Design Essentials for Electric Vehicle Charging
11/27/2024 | Team NCAB -- Column: Fresh PCB ConceptsElectric vehicles (EVs), powered by electricity rather than fossil fuels, are transforming transportation and reducing environmental impacts. But what good is an EV if it can't be easily charged? In this month's column, Ramon Roche dives into the role of printed circuit boards (PCBs) in electric vehicle charging (EVC)—and the design considerations.
From Construction Work to PCB Design in Under a Year
11/27/2024 | Andy Shaughnessy, Design007 MagazineAt the Anaheim Electronics & Manufacturing Show in October, I had the opportunity to talk with some new PCB designers, including Jon Smith of Frontgrade Aethercomm. During the Anaheim show, John Watson, a PCB design instructor at Palomar College, led a panel of his past and present students, including Jon, who shared his story of switching from a construction career to PCB design in a matter of months, courtesy of Watson’s Palomar College design curriculum.
