Dr. Lott:
I am an Electrical Engineering student at Florida Atlantic University, in
Boca Raton, Florida, where I am presently taking a DFM class. My class project
is a paper titled "DFM Considerations for Rigid PCBs in Medical Applications"
and I am currently looking for material on this topic.
I am finding out that because DFM is a philosophy that encompasses things like
DFT, DFF, DFA, DFS, and lately Design for the Environment (DFE), information
on any of these topics is scattered around. I have found some
sources of information, mainly EDN and Printed Circuit Design magazines;
however, I didn't know of the existence of the IPC/EPA Design for the
Environment (DfE) Project Technical Committee. I am going to cover DFE because
the push for green PCBs is forcing designers to use new materials which
have different characteristics than they're used to - new materials are
also being developed.
- What is the IPC/EPA Design for the Environment (DfE) Project Technical
Committee?
- How do I obtain information about this effort? Any related publications?
- Are there any online sources of information for DFE related issues?
- Does any one of the standards organizations, US and abroad, provide a
reference DFE document or is this something that is left up to the individual
companies to develop?
- How do certification programs, like ISO 9000, affect DFE?
Any help or sources of info you or anyone else out there can provide will be
greatly appreciated.
-- Jose'
P.S. If there is enough interest I could post a compendium of references,
Internet sites, and other materials after I finish my project.
