Briefly talk about some things about PCB
The vigorous development of Yibo Technology in 2004 was due to its investment in technology and specifications. Three major EDA software technology platforms have been built. At the same time, the SI/EMC research department has been established. Special personnel are assigned to track and study PCB technologies. Technology, design, and quality assurance system, and at the same time provide a technical platform for internal staff to communicate, learn and improve. Only on the basis of consolidating its own internal strength, Yibo has the ability and strength to take on difficult design tasks, such as system SI analysis and EMC tasks, complex and difficult board design, etc. And through these to drive customer expansion.
There are many PCB design companies in China that claim to be able to carry out EMC design, but there are very few PCB design companies that can really allow customers to pay for EMC cooperation projects. In the middle of 2004, Yibo Technology successfully completed an EMC project with considerable technical difficulty; almost all IT and communication interfaces (such as AUDIO, VIDEO, network port, 232, 422, 485, VGA, S-terminal, E1, etc.) were covered. ), there are as many as 16 crystal oscillators and crystals on the board, there are many fans and radiators on the board, and the functions are complicated. The customer requires that they must pass EN55022 CLASS B, which is quite difficult. Many professional EMC companies and PCB design companies dare not take orders. After many assessments, the customer finally chose Yibo Technology as a partner. After self-analysis and digestion, Yibo Technology passed the sophisticated PCB design and circuit processing, combined with the necessary structure and cable design, after the first countermeasure, the unboxing test passed CLASS A, and the overall passed CLASS B. Won the trust of customers.
As a technical service company, it is inevitable to have access to confidential information of some customers. How to make the customer feel relieved to give you the information he knows. Professional PCB design companies must do a good job of confidentiality. At Yibo, before cooperating with customers, first sign a confidentiality agreement to protect customers while also protecting themselves. New employees must sign a confidentiality contract when signing the employee contract. Eliminate the possibility of leaks from the company's internal operating procedures and computer hardware. It truly allows customers to achieve "satisfactory technology, happy cooperation, confidentiality and peace of mind".
From the customer's point of view, to inspect a PCB design company, you must inspect the following points on the spot:
1. The number of engineers is the key to ensuring the progress of your product design. Scale can truly guarantee the progress and quality requirements of customers.
2. The level of the interface engineer: This engineer is the actual person in charge of your product, and his level largely determines the quality of your PCB product's PCB design.
3. Whether the company's design process is standardized, and how to ensure it. Generally speaking, it is definitely not possible to rely on individuals, and a standardized process system must be guaranteed.
4. The company's technical strength and background. Are there any full-time technical personnel to ensure the quality of the design? How to track advanced technology in the industry, etc.
5. The company's integrity and confidentiality measures.
As a PCB design service company, many new companies were born in 2004, and many companies were also going to die. Some companies are booming, while others are gradually declining. The main reason is that the following three points determine the company's vitality: technology, service attitude and company positioning.
Looking at these declining companies, most of them are due to the following reasons: limited technical capabilities, failure to meet customer service and confidentiality requirements, or the company is so lofty, that they have not actually consolidated their internal strength. Due to the lack of strength support, these companies exaggerated their strengths in order to attract the attention of customers. When they meet real needs, they suffer from indigestion, which leads to a decline in customer trust. Of course, some companies have gradually lost customers because of poor service attitudes that led to a decline in customer satisfaction.
Although the domestic PCB design industry has made great progress in 2004, we should also see: the same propaganda, similar advertisements (even the base map and data of the website are the same); such false propaganda killed the customer PCB The enthusiasm for outsourcing and the trust in outsourcing resources needlessly increase the difficulty of communication with each other.
The PCB design industry is an emerging industry, and its development requires us to jointly maintain it, lay a solid foundation, moderate publicity, and jointly maintain the integrity of PCB outsourcing. It is believed that 2005 will be a year for China's PCB design industry to make great strides forward.
