During custom board design, designers frequently reuse the SK design files and edit the design file. Alternatively, designers reuse common implementations, including processor, memory and communication interfaces. Because the SK is expected to have additional functions, designers optimize the SK implementation to suit board design requirements. While optimizing the SK schematics, errors are introduced into the custom design that cause functional, performance or reliability problems. When optimizing, designers have queries regarding the SK implementation, resulting in design errors. Many of the optimization and design errors are common across designs. Based on the user inputs and data sheet pin connectivity recommendations, comprehensive Design Notes (D-Note), Review Notes (R-Note) and CAD Notes (CAD-Note) are added near each section of the SK schematic for designers to review and follow to minimize errors. As part of the design downloads, additional files are included to support evaluation.
