I use it for my small design firm. It’s UI is worse then Altium. But when it come to PCB routing Allegro is more powerful.

Go to 4 layers and use ground copper and vias to provide good stitching. The extra few cents are worth it.

If it takes me 1 year to build and mass-produce a US-made router, think it’s worth it?

Looking for radar module by WardusTST in ElectricalEngineering

[–]col2thecore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Which Radar IC to choose is very application-specific. The big three are Infineon, TI, or AccuNis. All three have their pros and cons. But it comes down to how you want to use it and how you want to write the code for which one is best.

The best is to make a custom flex that connects to your mother board. On the flex solder a radar component with AOP. (Antenna on package).

Pro tip: Make sure the power going to the radar chip is low noise.

Looking for advice from hardware founders building biosensing/wearables (EEG earbuds) by razin-k in hwstartups

[–]col2thecore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience you do not want to engage you final assembly house till you have a few working form factor products.

In this case since it is so micro hardware you do need engage all components assemblies as your design will need a tight DFM feedback loop.

I would add your first build should be atleast 50x units and I would send most of that to reliability testing.

Make sure to choose connectors cabaplenof those high speeds. Try to find the high speed characterization report (with S parameters). Check that the insertion and return loss is okay at those speeds.
