Complex PCB and packaging designs have easily overlooked issues that can affect manufacturing. Valor DFM solutions reduce re-spins in a PCB design, getting you to market sooner.
Automating DFM in PCB design
Connect Group brings DFM in at a very early stage in the product lifecycle. Anticipating problems in production and incorporating testing into design help create a win-win system for the Connect Group and their customers.
Capabilities
Align your DFM analysis with your suppliers' capabilities to gain visibility and control over design and manufacturing trade-off decisions.
Move manufacturing knowledge into PCB design
Manufacturing Driven Design (MDD) is the process of providing full manufacturing awareness within the design process in a manner that allows designers to optimize a design for manufacturing with the first release. MDD understands how your design will be manufactured and automatically applies the appropriate DFM Profile to use for anal-ysis. Designers can now release designs that will result in high manufacturing yield and lower cost without having to be manufacturing experts.
Integrate DFM into Xpedition PCB design process
Xpedition DFM seamlessly integrates DFM analysis throughout the Xpedition design flow, eliminating manufacturability issues and accelerating release to manufacturing. By running select DFM checks at each progressive stage of layout in the native Xpedition user experience, designers can address issues before moving to the next stage, all without having to learn a new application.
