재사용 가능한 회로 블록으로 출시 기간 단축

PCB 설계

재사용 가능한 회로 블록을 사용하면 신제품을 신속하게 구축할 수 있습니다. 하지만 라이브러리와 설계를 모두 아우르는 프로세스는 어떻게 관리하면 좋을까요? 정확히 어떤 요소를 관리해야 하는지는 어떻게 알아볼까요? 이 글에서는 인증된 회로를 활용하여 지속적인 회로 개선을 이루는 기법, 재사용 가능한 회로 블록 사용의 모범 사례, 그리고 그러한 블록을 사용해 IP 소유주 및 ITAR 분류와 같이 중요한 정보를 추적하는 방법 등을 설명합니다.

Best practices and benefits for using reusable circuit blocks

Design teams can maximize the time-to-market benefits of reusable circuit blocks by adhering to best practices such as:

  • Ensuring that all team members are properly trained in the reusable circuit blocks process from both the library and design perspective

  • Assigning meaningful categories and properties to the reusable blocks to ensure they can be located and properly utilized by potential consumers

  • Keeping in mind that a library of certified reusable circuit blocks requires continual investment to ensure high quality and reliability. For example, utilizing data from the field can continually improve the reliability of high-use circuit blocks

  • Trying to avoid the ‘not-invented-here’ syndrome. Recognize that everyone has their own design style; as such, resist the urge to recreate, change, or simply refuse to use the certified blocks lest the investment in the circuit block library quickly be lost.
