PCB Libraries: Who are they and what do they do
All electronic product designs, from small handheld devices to complex space and military applications, start with components. Each one must be mounted securely and accurately on the printed circuit board (PCB) for the product to work properly. A single miscalculation can result in a company having to scrap a fabricated PCB and start a new design. These design respins are …

The Evolution of the PCB Librarian Role
Is the traditional PCB librarian’s role becoming obsolete? Printed circuit board (PCB) engineers and specialists like signal integrity (SI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) engineers have traditionally had very different responsibilities, but the lines between these roles are now becoming blurred. Over the past few years, engineers performing the layout tasks within the PCB design flow have generally had a “tall, …
