We also identify the risk areas of the circuit which will benefit from SI during the project planning phase. With proper planning during the schematic phase, we put together all the proper models required for simulation.
PCB LAYOUT & DFX
Whizz Systems is one of the larger PCB design groups in the world offering board layout services. We are capable of placing multiple engineers on a board, at the same time. Our efficient approach cuts down project timelines allowing for very fast production. For situations where boards are very highly constrained and the auto router is not the right tool for the job, we offer 100% hand routing.
With a CM background that offers board layout services, we understand the importance of DFX, and have prioritized our investment to develop the internal tools necessary to automate these functions. Our process uses industry standard tools including VALOR and also several internally developed scripts. The result produces circuit boards with optimized placement of critical components for robust performance and manufacturability in high volume.
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 to fulfill those requirements.
While we handle complete projects, we also work with internal CAD teams in a TAG-TEAM approach to provide each client with exactly what is needed.
We use leading tools like Valor to incorporate DFX into our design flow. In addition to Valor, we have developed a number of scripts to enhance our DFX. We have customized our DFM reports, 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.

During the design phase, we will maximize the test point coverage. We will give you the report of all the nets that are not being covered, so that we can cover those nets in a functional test.
We have several testing options in-house, and will offer you the right choice depending on your product plan.
The following are some of the test options we offer.
REWORK & ECO
Whizz Systems is well known for its ability and receptive attitude towards reworking assemblies. Whether the rework is simple or difficult, caused by a faulty component or an Engineering Change Order (ECO), we are ready. We understand that it is difficult and stressful to deal with these types of issues. Rather than paying more to scrap and rebuild, Whizz will offer you a rework solution that is effective and cost-efficient. In one instance of rework, we received failed units from a customer’s field. We took the boards apart and installed a number of cuts and jumpers in order to repair a serious layout error discovered after the boards were completed at an offshore facility. Though this rework was tedious and demanding, we shipped back the functional assemblies, ready for installation within weeks. We constantly provide these kinds of services to many manufacturers, service centers, major electronics retailers and repair centers.
