299: Reasonably Foreseeable Misuse

Monk Eastman (@MonkFunkster) joined us for an enlightening conversation about hardware compliance engineering. We covered the basics of CE, FCC, UL, and battery certification. 

We mentioned that Alan Cohen’s Prototype to Product: A Practical Guide for Getting to Market has a good overview of certification. Alan was on Embedded 269: Ultra-Precise Death Ray.

For a deeper view of compliance engineer, Monk suggested this book: Electrical Product Compliance and Safety Engineering.

Listener Skippy wrote about his experience with CE certification.

Monk plays bass saxophone in the East Bay Brass Band.

Details on registering for the Embedded 300 party on Eventbrite.com are in the show itself.

I am Elecia White alongside Christopher White. We’re here to chat about the interests, careers, and lives of engineers, artists, educators and makers. Our diverse guest list includes names you may have heard and engineers working quietly in the trenches. Either way, they are knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and inspiring. We’d love to share our enthusiasm for science, technology, engineering, art, and math (STEAM).
