Money and Time - Catch Unintended Changes
Early
Unintended
design and netlist changes cost companies millions every year in
production delays, costly retooling / refixturing, and even
product cancellations. DOCTAR gives you the
data you need to:
Identify potential problems earlier in the design
cycle
Eliminate Production Delays
Prevent unnecessary
and costly fixture rework
Save Design Review Time
Reports Differences in Logical, Physical and
Manufacturing Levels
DOCTAR reduces the error
prone, mundane work of the identifying and tracking changes in a hardware
design. Design engineers can make informed trade-offs and
implement changes as necessary early in the design cycle,
before costly respins are needed. Areas of high cost, such as
test fixture re-tooling/re-programming can be identified early
in the layout process.
Ensures Design Data Integrity from Design to
Manufacturing
Use DOCTAR to validate changes as
design data cycles through the design and redesign
process.
- Hardware Design Reviews -- especially
for multi-person teams
- Tracking changes in your database
for ECO
documentation.
- Saving time in PCB cost estimating and
confirm true scope of work.
- Ensuring compliance with DFM and DFT
standards.
- Better controls for outsourced
design/manufacturing
resources
DOCTAR is
especially useful when sub-designs are shared among multiple
systems. DOCTAR's versatile reporting tools can even focus in
on sub-designs to ensure the designs are similar.

we requested really got in the design whenever there

"It used to take us a week to get
approvals from our hardware designer just to add a few test
points. With DOCTAR, he was able to get us an answer in
less than 24 hrs."
