Get to Know Your PCB Design Stakeholders

A popular perspective is that an engineer isolated–aside from their computer–in a cubicle creates a printed circuit board. Nothing could be further from the reality. Without a doubt, the EE/PCB designer has a starring role in the PCB production; however, there are several others that play significant roles. In order for the PCB design and development process to best achieve the intended outcome of meeting the needs of the customer, it is important that all PCB design stakeholders play their parts well.

This eBook answers the following questions:

  • Who are the PCB design stakeholders and what are their functions? 
  • Why is it important to forge solid relationships with all EMS stakeholders before starting the design process?
  • Why is it critical to collaborate with fabrication and assembly house stakeholders to ensure your board is built correctly?
  • What role does the customer play in the PCB design process? 
  • Why does the success of your PCB design process depend on you acquiring and incorporating stakeholder feedback?
