They should try their best to read through the IPC standards before they start designing their boards. This will ensure that they consider compliance from the start of the design process to the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m your host, Steph Chavez, a Senior Product Marketing Manager with Siemens. I\u2019m glad to be joined by Gerry Partida, Vice President of Technology at Summit Interconnect. Out of his 38 years in the industry, he spent the last 27 fabricating PCBs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this episode, you\u2019ll learn about the difficulties in collaboration between PCB designers and manufacturers. You\u2019ll hear about the best practices that designers should follow to reduce the risk of their design being rejected. Additionally, you\u2019ll find out some of the rules that designers should follow to increase their board yield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you\u2019ll learn in this episode:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What doesn&#8217;t work today in PCB design and manufacturing collaboration (01:53)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Best practices that PCB designers should implement (07:36)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>An example of how following rules can save eliminate manufacturing delays (11:51)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What design teams can do to improve efficiency (18:10)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"bio-block row\">\n    <div class=\"col-3 order-first bio-pic\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/32\/2023\/03\/Gerry_173.jpg\" alt=\"Gerry Partida\" \/>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col-9 bio-info\">\n        <div class=\"bio-header\">\n            <h4 class=\"speakerintro\">Gerry Partida<\/h4>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-biography\">\n            <p>Vice President of Technology at Summit Interconnect<\/p>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-contact\">\n            <p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/gerry-partida-38673a50\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Connect with Gerry on LinkedIn<\/a><\/p>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"bio-block row\">\n    <div class=\"col-3 order-first bio-pic\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/32\/2022\/11\/steph_chavez300-small.jpg\" alt=\"Steph Chavez\" \/>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col-9 bio-info\">\n        <div class=\"bio-header\">\n            <h4 class=\"speakerintro\">Steph Chavez<\/h4>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-biography\">\n            <p>Senior Product Marketing Manager, Siemens\u00a0<\/p>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"bio-contact\">\n            <p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/stephen-v-chavez-59985012\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Connect with Steph on LinkedIn<\/a><\/p>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Want more PCB design best practices?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn PCB design best practices from an industry expert with over 30 years of experience, broken down into five pillars:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\" start=\"1\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/eda.sw.siemens.com\/en-US\/pcb\/digitally-integrated-and-optimized\/library-design-data-management\/?ref=EBS_blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Digitally integrated and optimized<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/eda.sw.siemens.com\/en-US\/pcb\/engineering-productivity-and-efficiency\/advanced-design\/?ref=EBS_blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Engineering productivity and efficiency<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/eda.sw.siemens.com\/en-US\/pcb\/digital-prototype-driven-verification\/?ref=EBS_blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Digital prototype-driven verification<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/eda.sw.siemens.com\/en-US\/pcb\/model-based-systems-engineering\/?ref=EBS_blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">System-level model-based engineering<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/eda.sw.siemens.com\/en-US\/pcb\/supply-chain-resilience\/?ref=EBS_blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Supply chain resilience<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Take your PCB design process to the next level today by checking out this content!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When designers work in isolation, they increase the chances of the designs being sent back for non-compliance.
