“…Visto a não verticalização da indústria eletrônica e a consequente concentração das empresas em seus respectivos core business, os fabricantes de componentes eletrônicos muitas vezes transmitem a responsabilidade do suporte técnico para seus distribuidores autorizados (FOUCHER et al, 1998). O quadro 2 descreve os tipos de fornecedores da cadeia de suprimentos na indústria eletrônica (PECHT, 2004).…”

Resumo:Com base no comportamento do mercado atual e suas tendências, a excelência na gestão do Processo de Desenvolvimento de Produtos (PDP) é um fator cada vez mais determinante nas empresas. No caso de empresas incubadas do setor eletroeletrônico, a inovação tecnológica e o desenvolvimento de novos produtos, dentro de um ambiente de difícil acesso tecnológico como o Brasil, torna a gestão do PDP ainda mais crítica. O objetivo desta pesquisa é apresentar estudos de casos múltiplos que identificam as dificuldades e exploram a maneira como estas empresas realizam a fase de Projeto Conceitual do PDP, já que esta é uma fase determinante para empresas com perfil inovador. Os resultados identificam dificuldades dentro deste escopo como o acesso à tecnologia, dependência de recursos públicos de fomento, elevado grau de insatisfação com fornecedores, além da carência no uso de modelos de referência sobre o PDP.Palavras-chave: Processo de Desenvolvimento de Produtos. Projeto Conceitual. Empresas Incubadas. Empresa de Base Tecnológica.; Produtos Eletroeletrônicos.Abstract: Based on current market behavior and its trends, the excellence in managing the Product Development Process (PDP) is a crucial subject in organizations. Considering an environment with difficult technology access as Brazil, for incubated companies in the electronic industry, the technical innovation and the new product development makes PDP management even more critical. The aim of this study is multiple case studies that identifies the difficulties and explores how these companies execute the Conceptual Design phase of PDP, since it is an important phase for innovative companies. As a result, the research indentifies difficulties as technology access, dependency of public resources for development, substantial dissatisfaction with suppliers, and a lack of use of reference models of PDP.

Uprating is a process that assesses the capability of a part to meet the functional and performance requirements for an application in which the part is used outside the specified temperature range provided in the manufacturer's datasheet. This article discusses the use of uprating as a means to address obsolescence. The article begins by explaining the rationale and opportunities for using parts outside the specification range. The technical issues for using uprating to address obsolescence [obsolescence is known in the military community as diminishing manufacturing sources and material shortages (DMSMS)] are then presented. Finally, a case study is presented. Index Terms-Absolute maximum ratings (AMR).

PurposeThe paper presents an alternative solution to address part obsolescence. This paper discusses approaches to solve part obsolescence including an uprating approach. This paper also describes the methods to uprate parts, and demonstrates the practical application of the uprating approach in the form of a case study.Design/methodology/approachThis paper has been written to provide an understanding of the uprating approach to mitigate the problems caused by part obsolescence. The paper discusses the challenge faced due to part obsolescence, the temperature ratings for electronic parts, the uprating methods and finally explains the use of uprating to mitigate part obsolescence in the form of a case study. The part being uprated is a microcontroller unit used in many avionics applications. The case study describes a particular use of uprating and the return on investment.FindingsBased on the uprating approach, it was discovered that for the particular application, the commercially available plastic quad flat pack microcontroller could be used as a substitute for the “military” ceramic BGA version, which was discontinued by the manufacturer. It was discovered that there would be no problem with the commercial part's quality or reliability for the particular application. Parametric tests showed no evidence of instability of electrical characteristics over the uprated temperature range. There was substantial return on investment due to the use of uprated parts.Practical implicationsThis paper can help electronics manufactures deal with part obsolescence. This paper demonstrates the practicality of uprating parts. Uprating can save companies money by reducing the need for life‐time buys, substitution of parts and even redesign.Originality/valueThe paper provides an alternative approach to address the problem of part obsolescence. This paper shows that proper uprating leads to cost saving while continuing to provide reliable service.
