PADS PCB Designer and Altium Designer are used for the PCB layout. A key factor for quality and costs is the design for testing. The test strategy and corresponding test structure are also defined. The creation of the mechanical design occurs alongside the electronics hardware development with selected partners.<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/iftest.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Iftest-B-1966-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4306 size-full\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group alignfull has-base-background-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66%\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An Overview of Product Lifecycle Management<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>In the context of product design, particular emphasis is placed on component selection.
