Plan Product Success -- One Component at a Time

For product designers and engineers, this is an ideal roadmap to developing cutting-edge consumer portable electronics. Portable Electronics Product Design and Development is a powerful engineering tutorial that approaches design component by component, offering priceless guidance on key decisions, including selection and integration of every element in electronic portables.

Author and engineer Bert Haskell, an electronics product design specialist, sets the stage with a succinct assessment of the portable electronics marketplace, analyzing the features that consumers do like and the flaws they do not like. Then he offers valuable engineering insights and component comparisons you can use to improve the way your products work and look, and to help them fare better in the marketplace. In the concluding chapters, he offers unique insights into the economics that drive the portable electronics industry and a creative vision for shaping future product concepts.
