Top Design for Manufacturability Considerations

A circuit board assembly line with components designed for manufacturability

The general engineering practice of designing products for manufacture is known as Design for Manufacturability (DFM). This technique is practiced across nearly every engineering discipline. This article details common design principles used to improve manufacturability, such as using a multi-functional team, standardizing parts, and minimizing over-constraints. Some of the expected benefits of incorporating these engineering […]

Active Optical Cables VS Traditional Copper

Assortment of copper cables

Traditional copper wiring has many constraints. As InfiniBand data speeds increase and data centers cluster in size, copper cable technology is being pushed to its limits. Passive cables are restricted by their conductivity and can only carry a certain amount of data over short distances. Active optical cables transcend some of the constraints of passive […]
