Hello, I'm looking for some information that describes some of the best practices or habits for successful electronic design or embedded design. I'm trying to convince some co-workers that it is important to document their work and follow standards in their designs. Some of my co-workers are very fast designers and are respected by their peers, but in their rush to get the design done they often ignore standards and don't document their work, such as in their schematics or in their FPGA code. I feel these habits and behavior actually wastes money, by that I mean that if someone has to take their undocumented work, they won't know what is going on. I realize that I might not be able to change more senior engineers, but I might be able to leave an impression on the newer engineers. If anyone knows of some habits or a list of some best practices that make a successful design, please pass them onto me. Most of these habits I would assume fall into proper system engineering.
thanks, joe
