Beyond the datasheet
Performance is only the entry ticket. Package capacity, second-source options, errata, temperature grade, software ecosystems, and lifecycle commitments all become production costs.
Design for substitution
Record not only why a part was selected, but also the conditions that would force a replacement. Capture peripheral dependencies, timing margins, and toolchain constraints in the decision record.
Make risk review a rhythm
Review PCNs, lead times, and firmware dependencies every quarter. Lifecycle risk is a recurring engineering practice, not a one-time gate.
