Electronics Reverse Engineering icon
icon Electronics Reverse Engineering
Reverse Engineering, by definition, is the generation of design data to replicate or re-create an existing product. Reverse Engineering is a discipline equivalent to an analytical multi-tool, with the ability to completely recreate design data for a product from scratch. Reverse engineering capacity is a healthy marker for any mature industry and a critical component in ensuring system continuity.

When PCBs are initially designed, they are created by a designer who stores the design on some sort of storage medium. Historically, Mylar films were used to both store and produce PCBs, but modern techniques have moved away from this method. Regardless of the method used, no factory or location is completely impervious to natural disaster or human error, and designs can become lost or damaged over a product’s lifespan. The loss of original design data for a PCB represents a loss in the ability to control a product’s design and to reproduce the product.

Furthermore, PCB Reverse engineering can also be used to fill in partial data gaps in a circuit assembly data package. For example, if you only have a bill of materials and a physical PCB, ScanCAD can use the board to generate the bare board design data and a schematic.

Our main supplier for this technology is ScanCAD. Founded in 1990, ScanCAD has successfully integrated low-cost, high-resolution, optical image acquisition platforms with powerful PC-based software to provide easy-to-use reverse engineering, inspection and programming systems used in PCB design, fabrication, assembly, and test organizations.
