*You* may be well versed, but not every designer is experienced or even familiar with DFM. I don't care how sophisticated the circuitry is, if you can't build it it's a lousy design, and as an EMS we see many designs that shouldn't have passed the

Hey Dave, Thank you so much for the information. One of my friends suggested me that we have free DFM software’s offered by few PCB manufacturers which enables the designers to check their PCB design during the initial design process, preventing des
