Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

Instructions to Assessors

Required Skills and Knowledge

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions on at least two separate occasions and include:

applying relevant work health and safety (WHS)/occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements, workplace procedures and practices, including using risk control measures

creating a library of components

creating custom component footprints and schematic elements using physical measurements and/or applicable datasheets

dealing with unplanned situations in accordance with workplace procedures in a manner that minimises risk to personnel and equipment

designing single and double-layer boards

developing outlines of alternative designs

developing the design within safety and functional requirements

documenting and presenting design effectively

extracting and checking manufacturing files/gerber and drill/excelon

implementing common design rule parameters used by printed circuit board fabrication houses

modifying existing component footprints and schematic elements using physical measurements and/or applicable datasheets

running design rule and error checks within software package

using a version control system (VCS) or implementing a version control strategy

using an industry standard printed circuit board design software package

using both surface mount device (SMD)/surface mount technology (SMT) and through-hole components

using Vias in accordance with industry standards.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements, performance criteria and range of conditions and include knowledge of:

design principles and industry standards

design tools and software

factors influencing design, including component placement, routing and auto-routing and design rules

printed circuit board techniques, including materials and processes overview (photographic, mechanical, thermal and dielectric) and types of printed circuit board (single-sided, double-sided and multi-layer)

relevant job safety assessments or risk mitigation processes

relevant printed circuit board manufacturer specifications, including component specifications and their implications in a given circuit

relevant WHS/OHS legislated requirements

relevant workplace documentation

relevant workplace policies and procedures

sources of components and technical data, including sources of components and technical data (data sheets and manufacturer’s data) and circuit/apparatus parameters and specifications.

Range Statement

Range is restricted to essential operating conditions and any other variables essential to the work environment.

Non-essential conditions may be found in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package Companion Volume Implementation Guide.

Designing electronic printed circuit boards must include at least the following:

two printed boards for different component population densities and related sub-assemblies, including:

single-sided printed circuit board
