Evolving Design Reuse Considerations
For many electronics companies, their new products are actually variations of existing products. Products often have design circuits that can be leveraged from product to product. The ability to reuse board-to-board printed circuit board (PCB) circuits enables design teams to build new products quickly, accelerating time to market. These reusable “golden circuits” can vary from complex CPU or GPU configurations …

Design Reuse: Getting Back on the Road
When it comes to design reuse, we’ve had such grand plans. There’s always been a need. It might vary by industry, but designers and engineers rarely start a new design from a clean sheet. Why would they? Most product improvements are incremental and evolutionary, not revolutionary. The best way to meet short deadlines is to minimally change designs to satisfy …
