CHAPTER 1Introduction to Electronic Design
Product design is the process of creating an electronic circuit, device, or piece of equipment. It may be a new commercial product for sale to generate new revenue and profit. Or it could be a highly specialized device needed as part of a scientific research effort. Then again it may be the brainchild of a hobbyist or experimenter for entertainment or learning purposes. The design process varies widely from engineer to engineer or from company to company. Yet despite the differences, the processes have common elements or essential steps. This chapter attempts to identify these common and necessary steps and to generate a cookbook design method that you can use to create a product.
