FPGA/PCB Co-Design Increases Fabrication Yields
When integrating FPGAs into PCB design every signal and pin has a measureable effect on production yield.

There has been a ruling in the high court in London UK where the PCB designer who routed a 0.75mm BGA on a design was made liable for the failure of the product.

An expert claimed that routing the ball stubs all in the same direction caused impedance and that was negligent routing. I would appreciate any comments you all may have as its possible this ruling could have an impact on all of your responsibilities.
