At Sierra Circuits, we understand the challenges PCB designers face when implementing DFM checklists. That's why we've developed Better DFM—a powerful and advanced tool that removes pain points and simplifies the design for manufacturing process.

What is Better DFM?

Better DFM is an online tool designed to check the manufacturability of electronic circuit designs. Its primary goal is to streamline your product design while enhancing the functional performance of your circuit, making it easier to manufacture. Plus, you can customize design parameters to suit your specific needs.

The tool allows you to upload your IPC-356 format netlist along with Gerber files, automatically creating a netlist and comparing it with the IPC netlist. It identifies any shorts or broken nets in the design, ensuring you catch errors early.

How does Better DFM help PCB designers?

The Better DFM tool simplifies your design and manufacturing process by cross-verifying your board design and parameters. Here's how it helps:

• Save time and money by identifying PCB design errors early, preventing on-holds and re-spins.
• Get an instant price quote and place your order online.
• Ensure you have a complete set of files for manufacturing and that your CAD design electrically matches.
