In a recent survey, we asked the following question: What steps do you take to make the job easier for your fabrication and assembly providers? Here are a few of the answers, edited slightly for clarity.
- Try to insist that client has fab house run Valor DFM.
- Consult them first with any questions.
- Don’t use more demanding fab technology than absolutely necessary, including tolerances.
- Review Gerbers before their release.
- Go straight to the vendors for a stackup.
