In my previous article, I talked about PCB keepout areas and why they're important. But PCB keepout areas don't just refer to the board, itself. A keepout area could also include the enclosure it lives in, which needs to be able to protect the PCB inside, even under stress. So how can we prevent an enclosure from encroaching on the z-axis of a PCB?
Again referring to my last article, I mentioned that I've identified two methods to effectively implement PCB keepouts in PCB design. The first I recommended was 3D modeling to give you the opportunity to foresee issues before fabrication.
The second method is to communicate effectively to all team members regarding all design changes and to have an open mind regarding members’ comments and/or feedback. This only works, of course, if you have a fully staffed team including a systems engineer, test engineer, PCB layout designer, design/electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, and of course assembly technicians. Getting all team members in one room—yes, a design review meeting!—to discuss the design openly will be most effective and beneficial. This becomes exceptionally important when working with enclosures.
