Application of QFD in Digital Electronics industry

This paper presents the application of QFD in design process involving designers and customers of Digital Electronics industry. After acquiring and prioritizing the customer requirements, QFD method is used to integrate the different stages of system design, to enhance the performance of design and development of systems. Process mapping with customer requirements is employed to formulate the “House of Quality”. A case study is conducted on, PALMCHIP Corporation, to demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed framework in analyzing the effectiveness and efficiency on performance. This paper explains the QFD method and all the required steps. This model can, ultimately, help in design optimization and a better system development in digital Electronics industry.
