We are the High Speed Experts; Engineering approach towards layout

•  Reference design / Silicon evaluation boards    |    •  Production boards

We are the ONLY service bureau with EE's on staff to do the board layout. Traditional designers approach toward layout is more mechanical than electrical. Today's designs require a lot more than that. This is why we have invested in EE's to actually do the board layout. Our designers understand the schematic, and the Signal Integrity domain.

Whizz Systems is among the larger PCB design groups in the world. Running two shifts, we are capable of placing multiple engineers on the board at the same time. We are very efficient in our approach, and can shrink routing schedules from months to weeks, and from weeks to days. For situations where boards are very highly constrained and the auto router is not a good answer, we offer 100% hand routing.

Coming from a CM background, we understand the importance of DFX, and have invested greatly in developing internal tools to automate these functions. We have taken several products from concept to very high volume production seamlessly. We have an elaborate process in place incorporating the best DFX practices in our design flow. This includes industry standard tools including VALOR, and also several scripts developed internally.

For Semiconductor companies, we specialize in providing Silicon Evaluation Boards, and Reference Design Boards. These boards have different considerations than production boards. In the product-planning phase, we establish a set of requirements for the project, and deploy appropriate methodology.

Being a service company, we offer different business models. You can outsource complete projects to us, or if you have in-house CAD group, we can work with your team in a TAG-TEAM approach to provide you the bandwidth in the required areas. We will custom tailor a business model that best fits your requirements.

DFx :
We come from the CM world, and have taken several programs from concept to very high volume offshore production. DFX is well integrated into our design flow through all stages of board layout. All of our designers are well trained on design for manufacturing and design for test issues and always get live feedback from our in-house manufacturing staff after each run of proto builds. This helps in continuous improvement in our process, tools, and knowledge base.

We use leading tools like Valor to incorporate DFx into our design flow. In addition to Valor, we have developed number of scripts to enhance our DFx. We have customized our DFM reports to easily readable graphics format so that we can quickly identify potential issues. Every time we learn something new, we translate that into scripts to further enhance our design for manufacturability and design for test tools.

Our Strengths :
•  EE's and ME's to do your layout and library development work
•  Run multiple shifts to reduce project schedules
•  Onshore and Offshore resources, where offshore is totally transparent to you
•  Ongoing internship program with leading universities to help scale our growth
•  10+ years of average experience per designer
•  Excellent delivery track record with most leading names in the valley
