No matter how many practice rounds I’ve sparred, the actual fight is an adrenaline-filled experience that cannot be replicated elsewhere. Similar to me when I’m prototyping a new board! Imagine two people stepping into a ring and each stepper immediately trying to ascertain where the other’s weaknesses are.

The same holds true in hardware design for hobbyists and professionals rushing their design for mass production. While both hobbyist and professional circuit hardware may exhibit the same basic functions, the latter is designed with deeper consideration of volatile parameters encountered in the real-world environment. While anyone, truly, can jump into circuit and board design, you should have some considerations before just developing your next devices. If you’re a passionate hobbyist electronics designer working on your first commercial project, here are some points to consider: User Interaction Considering your circuits, you should be thinking about safety and interaction with the environment they’ll be set up in. When you’re designing hardware that only you will be using, there’s a predefined pattern of interaction that doesn’t put the ruggedness of the hardware to test.

Circuits have a wide-ranging applicability, and one of the first rules of electronics is that someone will always find a way to use an electronic that wasn’t imagined. In a commercial design, you’ll need to consider various scenarios to better understand how different individuals may interact with the hardware. Interaction, in this case, could mean how one presses the keypad or touchscreen or simply plugs in the communication cables.
