Design for Manufacturability/Test

An integral part of Custom Assembly’s commitment to Exceptional Customer Service is providing Customers with Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Test (DFT) review on their product and assemblies.  The DFM/DFT review is initiated in the quoting process and again reviewed at the time of prototype development to ensure that assembly and final product designs conform to industry standards and internal process capabilities. This comprehensive review ensures the required manufactured integrity is attained.

The DFM Review Includes:

• Fiducials

• PCB Plating

• Keep-Out Areas

• Component Orientation, Spacing, Land Patterns, and Location

• Tool Holes

• PCB Panelization

• PCB Legend

The DFT Review Includes:

• In-Circuit Test Review

• Test Mode Availability

• Test Pads

• Overclamp Requirements

• Milling Requirements

• Netlist

• Functional Test Review

• Test Specifications

• Fixture Requirements
