Board Layout

Once we have completed the schematic capture of a design, we can proceeed to the board layout. When implementing the board layout, we follow these guidelines:

• Design for manufacture - both board manufacturing and component assembly
• Use of best value components
• Minimal power consumption
• Electrical and mechanical reliability
• Best overall system performance

Having completed the board layout, we would then produce a small prototype batch in order to prove the design and finalise any software required.
