-
When one team designs, lays out, and brings up a board, knowledge sticks. Splitting that work across specialists looks efficient but creates the risk it's meant to avoid.
-
AI coding agents like Claude and Codex are helping EE teams turn concepts into tested hardware in weeks, not months, without adding a new vendor or software dependency.
-
Choosing an EE partner is a program risk decision, not a staffing decision. Early architecture choices carry through to certification, and the wrong partner can cost far more than their hourly rate suggests.
-
PCB stack-up shapes signal integrity, EMC performance, and manufacturability long before layout begins. Getting layers and reference planes right avoids costly redesigns later.
-
Nigel Syrotuck breaks down REACH SVHC compliance for teams working with material suppliers and compliance questionnaires.
-
We examine when computational modelling and simulation, or CM&S, genuinely supports medical device simulation strategy and when it becomes a costly detour.
-
Many teams still underuse CM&S, often bringing it late in device validation, when key decisions have already been made. That approach leaves much of the value of CM&S untapped.
-
This article traces the Pennes bioheat equation from its 1948 origins to modern multiscale approaches, explaining how engineers select the right level of modelling complexity across device categories.

Five methods for building accurate project estimates, from gut feel to bottom-up, plus three add-ons that sharpen any estimate.
