More about the episode…
In this episode of the Printed Circuit Podcast, host Steph Tinkham speaks with Paul Welch, Product Manager at Siemens EDA, about how secure, cloud-connected solutions are transforming PCB design collaboration.
Paul explains how centralized, cloud-based environments enable asynchronous design reviews, bringing together global teams while maintaining full traceability of feedback and design changes. He dives into the advantages of web-based 2D and 3D visualization for stakeholders without direct EDA tool access, and how integrating BOM insights with live supply chain data helps avoid late-stage redesigns.
The conversation also covers Siemens’ secure-by-design approach, the multiple layers of access control that protect intellectual property, and where AI will fit into future PCB workflows, from prioritizing design review feedback to streamlining issue management.
Ideal for PCB designers, electrical engineers, design managers, supply chain teams, and anyone involved in collaborative, multi-location PCB projects.
