part numbering scheme?

Post by ezekielmudd »

Can anyone recommend an electronic part numbering scheme for inventory use?

Is there a popular scheme in use out there?

I like to use the letter type from the part reference designator (R,L,C,K,S,D etc.), followed by a sequential number. The parts are then organized by type in the stock room (caps in one area, switches in another). Plus the part# is related to the reference designator on the circuit boards.

That makes sense.

Considering how nutty ERP systems can get, it's nice when a simple system gets the job done.

Thanks for the inspiration!

By the way, I came across http://partnumber.com by Davide Andrea. Apparently, you can download the system and run it locally. Too bad that the source isn't available.
