Book excerpt: When designing electronic circuits, creating a product that meets the needs of the consumer and conforms to the requirements of production are essential parts of the electronic engineer's range of skills. Undergraduate students must acquire these skills through project work, and they require a textbook that provides the basic approaches and techniques needed for these design projects. Electronic Product Design supplies a complete practical treatment of this core subject by integrating several aspects of product development that are usually found in separate texts. It examines design goals, approaches for system design, costs of product development, designing for reliability, and quality analysis. The authors convey the principles by using examples of common electronic products, providing summaries of key concepts, and concluding with review problems. Covering the topic from the perspective of the electronic designer, the text clearly explains how electronic functionality is implemented in a broad range of products. It is a valuable resource for undergraduate students involved in electronic engineering and product development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book responds to the expression ‘all you always wanted to know about design representation but didn’t know where to ask’. Indeed, the book is a thematic guide to design representation, and the amount of information about design representations it holds is phenomenal." Professor Gabriela Goldschmidt Technion - Israel Institute of Technology This book extends understanding of the design process by exploring design representation types and examining them as theoretical constructs. It shows how fidelity and ambiguity inform the creative act of design, and considers design thinking through the lens of design representation. Design thinking is a method that has the potential to stimulate and enhance creativity. This book enhances understanding of what constitutes design thinking, why it is used and how it can be applied in practice to explore and develop ideas. The book positions a particular type of thinking through design representations, exploring this from its roots in design history, to the types of thinking in action associated with contemporary design practice. A taxonomy of design representations as a scaffold to express design intent, is applied to real world case studies. Product Design and the Role of Representation will be of interest to those working in or studying product development, engineering design and additive manufacturing.
