Catching DFM issues at the design stage is critical because, at each successive step of the production process, the cost of rectifying a problem increases tenfold over the previous step.\u00a0 This paper offers 100 ways to analyze for design for manufacturability in the PADS PCB design flow.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pads.com\/resources\/overview\/100-ways-to-ensure-dfm-optimization-in-your-desktop-pcb-design-process-aa9676c7-ad08-4cce-a11d-1c2bfb934413?cmpid=9049\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-3281\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2014\/10\/WP_SShot-520x671.gif\" alt=\"WP_SShot\" width=\"414\" height=\"534\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Learn more about how DFM analysis helps you to eliminate costly manufacturing delays by minimizing supplier \u201ccall-backs\u201d and design re-spins by downloading this white paper today !<\/p>\n<p>Click<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pads.com\/resources\/overview\/100-ways-to-ensure-dfm-optimization-in-your-desktop-pcb-design-process-aa9676c7-ad08-4cce-a11d-1c2bfb934413?cmpid=9049\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> HERE to Download<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Thanks,<\/p>\n<p>John<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In today\u2019s competitive marketplace companies cannot afford to have PCB production delayed because of slivers, unintended copper exposed by soldermask,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":32176,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spanish_translation":"","french_translation":"","german_translation":"","italian_translation":"","polish_translation":"","japanese_translation":"","chinese_translation":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"industry":[],"product":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-3279","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3279","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/32176"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3279"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3279\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10433,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3279\/revisions\/10433"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3279"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3279"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3279"},{"taxonomy":"industry","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/industry?post=3279"},{"taxonomy":"product","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?post=3279"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=3279"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
