DOCTAR

Reduces the Error Prone, Mundane Work of 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.

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
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 confirms 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.

Key Benefits:

Saves Time:

Automated reports run in minutes
Speeds up Design Review process
Reduces unnecessary rework time and effort

Cost Effective:

Provides data for determining cost impact of changes
Better upstream data prevents fixture rework
Less resources tied up reviewing designs and documentation

Saves Projects:

Consequences of unintended changes has been known to kill projects
