Keep timing visible
Parts can have different delivery schedules. Purchasing needs to reflect when the components are required for the build.
Component procurement.
Source the components specified for your hardware project. INVEISSET connects purchasing to the bill of materials, package requirements and agreed alternatives for the build.
Purchasing follows the component list.
- Part identity
- Manufacturer part number, electrical value and reference designator identify the component for each board position.
- Package compatibility
- Pin assignment, lead arrangement and dimensions need to match the PCB footprint. A similar name does not establish a physical match.
- Quantity and packaging
- Build quantity and supply format connect the purchase to the planned assembly.
Availability and agreed alternatives.
Carry an approved change through
A replacement needs technical agreement for the circuit, footprint and product. Record the change in the component list and the design information that depends on it.
