When one team designs, lays out, and brings up a board, knowledge sticks. Splitting that work across specialists looks efficient but creates the risk it's meant to avoid.
-
AI coding agents like Claude and Codex are helping EE teams turn concepts into tested hardware in weeks, not months, without adding a new vendor or software dependency.
-
Choosing an EE partner is a program risk decision, not a staffing decision. Early architecture choices carry through to certification, and the wrong partner can cost far more than their hourly rate suggests.
-
PCB stack-up shapes signal integrity, EMC performance, and manufacturability long before layout begins. Getting layers and reference planes right avoids costly redesigns later.
-
This article traces the Pennes bioheat equation from its 1948 origins to modern multiscale approaches, explaining how engineers select the right level of modelling complexity across device categories.
-
Most medical devices were designed for clinical settings, not the patients and caregivers who increasingly rely on them at home. Here's what good home-use device design actually requires.
-
Ariana and Mark walk through what separates a clinical prototype from a proof-of-concept build, what determines how much testing and documentation you actually need, and where the regulatory line between significant risk and non-significant risk falls.
-
In this episode of Bio Break, Nick walks through both patent types after receiving two of his own in the mail, one of each, from the USPTO.
