1
Then you say you start your NPI process
2
and this is comprised of three phases and after
3
that it's really ready for ongoing mass production and ramp up of the volumes, right?
4
Correct.
5
So what are these three phases?
6
So the three phases are engineering validation, design validation, and production validation.
7
Some people, a lot of people are familiar with these terms
8
but they're not familiar with what the actual meaning is and how you qualify from one phase to the next.
9
So a lot of people have misinterpreted this to mean that you've got three chances to build it and get it right.
10
That's not correct.
11
Each phase has different meaning.
12
So the engineering validation you want to prove out from an engineering point of view that your tooling is good, your enclosures are good, your PCBA is good,
13
that your features are all present and that your device is working as intended.
14
At the end of an ADT build you should sit in a room with all of your engineers
15
and all of them can say that their functions have been complete and this product is performing as expected.
16
So the output is not only a prototype that's much closer to what's intended
17
because it is made this time with the same manufacturing process as it is intended, it also comes on the supply chain side with a BOM,
18
so you already started to select the component suppliers, you've been working very closely with obviously also the assembly and testing supplier.
19
On the technical side you've gone into all the details of the design, the mechanical design, engineering design, the firmware design and so on.
20
Is that correct?
21
That's correct, yes.
22
So that EBT part that you've built should be fully representative of your supply chain and your processes.

- 錄下自己的聲音並與原聲對比，特別注意 validation, intend, supplier 這類單詞。
什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
