Live Webcast: PCB Engineering Doc and Change Management Made Easy
Overview
Please join us for this web seminar focused on “a day in the life of Oskar Engineer”. Oskar will take you through his newly automated design process showing how he is able to conquer daily challenges with engineering changes, Bill of Material (BOM) management and design documentation, freeing up time to focus on what he does best- designing products.
Product content data is constantly changing throughout the design-to-manufacturing process. A key issue facing today’s engineer is managing design data and keeping it synchronized with other systems across the Enterprise. As product lifecycles shrink, outsourcing increases, and new compliance pressures build, it is critical that engineering processes are managed effectively to avoid inefficiencies and to ensure product delivery goals are met.
What you will learn
- How to simplify component data and library management for Mentor (DxDesigner/DxDatabook) environments
- How to access part information directly from your design environment
- How to access data such as cost, lead times, and “where used” improve part selection
- How to shorten ECO and New Part Request cycles through automated processes
- How to easily manage revisions and variances for BOMs
- How to ensure change information is shared across the enterprise How to easily manage part data for RoHS compliance
Who should attend
- Engineering Manager
- Design Manger
- Operations Manager
- Document Control Manager

In the past, FPGAs were typically low density and low performance used primarily as "glue" logic to piece together a system. Today, FPGAs are high density, high performance components used to implement major system functionality. Since the current trend is to use multiple FPGAs on a PCB, how do you effectively and efficiently integrate the two? New FPGA/PCB concurrent design processes and tools significantly improve system performance, product costs, and designer productivity. This session will discuss these new design approaches.
Live Webcast: Concurrent DFM Verification for AssemblyThe assembly of a printed circuit board is typically the most expensive part of the manufacturing process. Not only are the components associated with the PCB expensive, but any errors not found until PCB assembly can mean the scrapping of the PCB itself if layout changes are required.Mentor's vSure DFM verification solution identifies manufacturability issues concurrent with your design process, effectively performing a virtual prototype of your design. This greatly reduces the number of revision spins it takes to reach your volume and quality objectives.
