InterComm is an Electronic Design Communications product that uses the Internet to address the problem of sharing complex design data in a simple way. With InterComm, anyone can view EDA designs created in different environments, including schematic, printed circuit board (PCB) and bill of materials (BOM) data, with a very simple to use tool. This eliminates the need to learn complex CAD software or create other forms of output viewable by people outside of engineering. Viewers can query intelligent design data and add comments or red-line changes that can be sent back to the EDA user electronically. Using InterComm further guarantees that only the EDA user can change the actual design files.
EMA's RoHS compliance strategy revolves around the concept of getting RoHS hazardous material content into the component database so that it is available at design time. By incorporating InterComm into EMA's RoHS compliance design methodology, EMA has given compliance visibility to all members in the design team. This can be especially helpful for compliance review of existing designs. Adding RoHS compliance data to the design allows operations or manufacturing to use InterComm to check for non-compliant components. Likewise, changes made in manufacturing for compliance reasons can be quickly reviewed by the design team using InterComm's design compare capability.
