Data verification of files ensures that problems in design are caught before the first prototypes are generated.

Chicago, IL – Electronic Interconnect Technology (EI) now offers a full range of data verification services to its printed circuit board customers. Data verification of files ensures that problems in design are caught before the first prototypes are generated.

In making the announcement, Pratish Patel, President and CEO, says, “This is a very important service, in keeping with EI’s overall mission of total customer satisfaction and support. Data verification helps ensure a quality product for our customers. We run extensive DRC/DFM analysis on all incoming Gerber files, prototypes or production, so that any issues or concerns that we find are quickly relayed to our customers. We have a very experienced engineering staff whose members are well-trained to detect and resolve problems; they do it on a daily basis.”

Data verification, Patel says, helps customers sort out PCB design and DFM issues before they become real production problems later on.

“One example of this is our offers IPC Netlist Comparison. IPC Netlist Comparison shows if there is either an electrical Open or Short present in the Gerbers, which was not present in the original PCB design.  At this point, we have an opportunity to contact the Design Engineer and alert him/her about this issue and try to resolve it together.”
