Show Notes
In our eighth episode, host Dave Finch discusses how to get from prototype to market, zeroing in on the process of DFM or, more accurately DFX, which stands for "Design for" ...well, anything that comes after the design.
Why does cost go up after a product's been released for a while? When should you consider certifcation in the design process? How can young engineers hope to familiarize themselves with DFM if they never even designed a full board in school?
Learn the many good reasons engineers should know their board manufacturers. Consider how EMS (electronic manufacturing services) companies have evolved from mere contractors into design partners.
And hear some truly unfortunate stories about what happens when you fail to plan beyond the circuit design stage appropriately.
