Introduction: Hardware development process takes a product from the early definition stage to form factor design. Production Definition/Scoping/Planing comes from market research and organizational objective and goals. As a system ee, we translate this product requirements into concrete electronic design in the following steps.
General design steps:
General development stages and schedule:
- Prototyping (Proto)
- Engineering validation testing (EVT)
- Device validation testing (DVT)
General manufacturing stages:
- Production validation testing (PVT)
- Mass production (MP)
Field Analysis
- Early Field Failure Analysis (EFFA)
