In many of these cases, although the individual function or design cannot be assessed by the design six sigma quality methodology, the system architecture can be evaluated using six sigma techniques....

In many cases, it is not possible to obtain Cpk analysis of the electron- ic1 design because of the functionality of the circuit or module, or the need to have complete certainty in the output of the ...

The design quality calculation for a single electrical circuit can be expanded to include several design targets for the circuit....

Many electronic products require thermal cooling systems to remove heat generated in the electronic boxes and to maintain proper operating temperatures in the transistor junctions within the PCBs....

In mechanical design, statistical design analysis can be substituted for worst-case tolerance analysis. A case study in mechanical design tolerance analysis is that of a typical vibrating probe that i...

A product is made of many parts that have been made from different materials. Many electronic products use parts made from plastics, sheet metal, machined parts, rubber, castings, etc....

There is increasing use of computer aided design (CAD) systems for i mechanical design. They make it convenient to present drawings in 3D to the designer, and hence offer a better view of parts mating...

Statistical analysis involves the application of statistical probability distributions to analyzing tolerances for assemblies. It will prevent overly conservative designs, which can increase the cost...
