#103699 - design for the application Responding to: ???'s previous message |
As it is, you will probably be under pressure to make it illogically cheap. So don't jack up your costs by inbuilt diagnostic hardware. Instead make you design "rugged". To be precise, design for the application, don't design marginally. This will drastically reduce the failures. As for the occasional failure, you can then afford to give replacement warranty, just send a new unit.
For in house diagnostics, test points on the PCB alone will speed up the work. Don't buy components cheap. They are usually rejects or pull outs. Particularly connectors like relimates, cheap means lousy crimping, recycled copper wires. |
