Part 3. Interconnect & Integration
Wiring integrity is where your electronics become a reliable system, not just components in a box. This chapter details the crucial integration strategy that prevents performance loss and field failures.
We secure the system by mastering:
- Harness Discipline: Routing, securing, and strain relief to protect wiring lifespan.
- EMI/EMC Control: Correct shield bonding and grounding for electrical quietness.
- Interface Integrity: Precise connector mating sequences and I/O panel alignment.
Master these final steps to deliver a robust and quiet product.
