Professional Electronic Design Best Practices

I loved this book because it goes straight to the point! No frills at all. The author is almost rude with such direct writing, but I liked the style. It is a fast-paced reading, as the text is very objective and could probably be converted into a list of bullet points for even quicker reference. Good images and tables help understand and remember key topics, too. Still, the author brings about 200 citations if you wish to check their suggestions in more detail.I’m a Mechatronics Engineer and have been working for almost 15 years with embedded systems design for medical equipment, especially hardware design. While I know about a fair amount of the topics covered here, there were many new tips I didn’t know or thought of.The author strongly focusses on robust design and practical advice that can be readily applied to real world problems and products, showing what to do and what not to do. Design for manufacturing and testing are also covered.If you work professionally on embedded systems and want to improve your designs, I’d strongly recommend reading this book. Even experienced engineers should have new insights from it. It’s a good reference book to have in the lab, so you can take a quick look while designing new products. The contents are clearly identified so it's easy to check a topic you’re working on.
