Top 5 Reasons why all PCB Professionals Fail...

THE BEST LAID PLANS OFTEN GO AWRY.

We'll help you avoid this.

  1. Lack of knowledge in manufacturing and PCB manufacturing processes

    • The knowledge of the manufacturing process will impact the manufacturing and cost.

  2. Minimal utilization of manufacturing capabilities (example with Impedance)

    • How impedance calculations by the manufacturer will impact the finished design, performance, turn time, cost.

  3. Lack of knowledge in materials

    • How to choosing of correct materials will impact performance, turn time and cost.

  4. Neglecting the suppliers support during design and layout

    • How the DFM report during preliminary stages will impact turn time & cost.

  5. Unrealistic expectations

    • How a reality check will impact performance, turn time & cost.
