We can help purchase common parts

Our team has experience in electronic components assembly and so on, so we understand that quality parts are essential to your operation. That's why we only offer the quality electronic parts:

Integrated circuit (IC)

An IC is a small enclosed circuit made of a semiconductor material. In integrated circuits, connections are usually created on silicon crystals. IC units have many practical electronic applications.

We can purchase components such as:

• Capacitor

• Resistor

• Transistor

• Additional metal connections

Printed circuit board assembly

PCBs are made of a range of materials that form layers to transmit data from one location to another. PCBs usually contain more precious, highly conductive metals, such as gold, and each component has a specific cost.

Elements of a PCB include:

• Substrate

• Laminate

• Solder resistance layer

• Silk screen printing

We can provide all these components and more. We also offer PCB assembly services and quality assurance agreements to deliver complete units. For more information about PCBs, check out our page and learn more about their different functions and applications.

Electronic parts sourcing strategies against constraints

While designing electronic circuit boards offers artistic opportunities, the entire PCBA development process requires adherence to boundaries or constraints. Most of these restrictions are well-founded and necessary. For example, established standards limit the number and type of defects and errors acceptable for manufacturing boards according to IPC performance classifications. However, other restrictions can be temporary and unpredictable.

These limitations affect design choices when selecting components for an ODM or OEM PCBA. Designers must know and understand the constraints in order to develop an electronic component procurement strategy to ensure that boards are manufactured in a timely manner and that operational, performance, and reliability goals are met.

What causes the limitation in purchasing electronic parts?

When developing a circuit board, component selection can determine the downstream success of the entire project. After all, selecting a substandard or forged component can cause the PCBA to fail or be unreliable. In either case, if it results in a redesign and/or recall, your relationship with your customers and your company's reputation will suffer with it, not to mention the impact of lost revenue and additional costs on your bottom line.

To avoid these outcomes, you need to understand the reasons for the constraints that limit the selection of electronic parts, listed below.

Reasons for procurement restrictions on electronic parts :

• Component attribute restrictions

This limitation seems intuitive. However, some component limitations may not be obvious, making acceptable electronic parts unavailable for your design. These include humidity, sensitivity and heat restriction. A thorough understanding of the end product's use cases and requirements will help you best determine the required component properties.

• Obsolete components

The product life cycle of all electronic parts begins and ends with the minimum amount of available inventory. Not knowing the availability of the components used in your design can lead to redesigns and redesigns that reduce your return on development investment. Help ensure product success by selecting components that promise to be available throughout the life of the project.

• Long lead time

Although it may be difficult to determine the amount of time it takes to customize an electronic NPI, there is usually a ceiling on development time before the product is likely to be discontinued or your profitability prospects diminish. One of the main reasons for prolonged development cycles is that your CM has to wait for components. You can work with your CM to determine the risks associated with all the components that may be working in your project.

• Limited suppliers

At the best of times, all electronic parts come from different sources. As the government works to develop regulations to limit the impact of COVID-19, the industry is learning that unforeseen events or circumstances can severely limit procurement options. Choosing off-the-shelf components, or components with off-the-shelf alternatives, can help avoid usability issues.

• Supply chain disruption

Supply chain disruptions, whether due to health pandemics, factory fires or other emergencies, can be catastrophic for industries that rely on unavailable electronic components. For example, some automakers have had to halt production because of reduced production of key semiconductors. To hedge this risk, some manufacturers order extra stocks of key components that they can use throughout the product's life cycle.

As the table above shows, some electronic parts source restrictions are common, while others are unpredictable. Absolute immunity from any procurement issues can be elusive; However, developing a procurement strategy for electronic parts to minimize the impact of procurement restrictions can help ensure a successful product launch.

Optimize your electronic parts purchasing strategy

Often, there is a separation between component selection and procurement. Sourcing and procurement professionals may find themselves at the mercy of design decisions made by electronics engineers who may not consider the market availability of key components. It may be more effective to view component procurement as a supply chain issue, and both the developer and the CM have a role to play in ensuring component procurement is optimized. This is best achieved by following a set of guidelines for purchasing electronic parts.

Guide to effective electronic parts sourcing strategy

• Optimize your component selection process.

The best way to optimize the component selection process is to adopt a risk-reducing electronic parts ourcing strategy. This includes understanding the component lifecycle, avoiding outdated components, and using only reputable vendors.

• CM cooperation with supply chain management services.

CM does not have dedicated supply chain services, or their activities simply reflect the work you do for full consignment component procurement. Therefore, you must make supply chain management QC for your manufacturer.

• Established the supply chain service type.

There are three supply chain service levels, with different responsibilities for you and your CM.

• About Hitech Circuits

1. The whole consignment

Here, you are solely responsible for managing your component supply chain, which can be cost effective if sufficient internal supply chain resources are available. The responsibility for the supply chain falls squarely on the developer.

2. Turn the key

Advantages: This option places the greatest responsibility on the CM that is likely to have a well-established and reliable supplier base. It also frees up internal resources for other development activities. Choosing the wrong CM can be costly in terms of service level, turnaround time, etc. Therefore, an established, established manufacturer should be sought.

3. Partial turnkey

Advantage: With this option, CM can keep an inventory of critical and/or exotic components. You can also leverage CM relationships with reputable vendors. Requires an entrenched CM with reliable sources, and requires some internal supply chain resources.

Following the guidelines outlined above will go a long way towards establishing an effective procurement strategy for electronic components with emergency resilience. Hitech is an industry leader in fast, high-quality prototyping and on-demand PCBA manufacturing, providing dedicated turnkey QC-based supply chain management, including intelligent inventory control, to ensure electronic parts shortages do not disrupt your board building process.
