Re-engineering Obsolete Electronic Designs
Electronics is a fast-moving industry. The cycle of new component release and old component obsolescence and increasing component lead-times causes ripples throughout the industry. Manufacturers of electronics based products are often forced to consider making designs obsolete before their time or else face the process of re-engineering. Re-engineering of old designs can offer ...
Can You Handle the Heat?
The south of the UK has experienced some unusual temperature extremes in the last four months, from sub-zero temperatures and snow in March to blazing sunshine and almost 30°C heat over the last few days. Whilst temperatures around 30°C may feel significant to the likes of me and you, Thick Film Hybrid circuits can perform optimally at any temperature up to ten times that (and ...
Six Design Considerations for Successful PCB Production and Assembly
Designers need to consider many aspects throughout the electronic product design process. As an electronics manufacturer, we often come across cases where production factors have been left to last and occasionally not considered at all. We thought that it would be helpful to pick our engineer’s brains for advice on PCB design for production and assembly. Here are six top tips t ...

Simplify Your Build Move
"My build is too complex to move, our existing supplier took years to get it right. I don’t want to go through that process again.” “I don’t have the time to deal with getting quotes from a new supplier.” “The cost of moving the job to a new supplier will be prohibitive.” These are just some of the common concerns customers have when looking at their sub-contract requirement ...
The new standard for customer service in electronics, this week in Electronics Specifier
It wasn’t that long ago that industrial and consumer product manufacturing were on two separate ends of the scale. But in today’s world, choice for consumers has started to drive industrial expectation because at the end of the day, everyone is a consumer - even designers, engineers and specifiers. By Pete Cross, MD, Corintech. Consumers today are inundated with choice. Not o ...
