What is Board Bring-Up? – Part 2
We know that the board bring-up process can be extremely challenging on today’s complex, high-speed designs. How do we get the iterative validation, test and debug steps off of the critical path of new product introduction? We’ve previously defined “board bring-up” as a phased process whereby an electronics system, inclusive of assembly, hardware, firmware, and […]
What is Board Bring-Up, and why does it take so long?
Board bring-up is a phased process whereby an electronics system, inclusive of assembly, hardware, firmware, and software elements, is successively tested, validated and debugged, iteratively, in order to achieve readiness for manufacture. This process can take so long that, sometimes, a product never gets to market because it is succeeded by the next generation. Any […]
