PCB Layout

The Sedona team is led by industry veterans who are considered Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) in their field.

These extreme tool users are complemented by an in-house software team whose mandate it is to automate repetitive tasks, ensure tool flows are optimized, and develop software tools to help the team ensure innovation is achieved at every possible turn. With a repository of over 100 scripts and programs, implemented into the design process, many manual quality checks have been automated, ensuring a faster design cycle, with a high quality deliverable.

PCB Layout
Our skilled PCB designers employ “Best Industry Practices” to meet circuit performance goals aligned with achieving your price targets. We compliment our Quality and Validation process to add our Clients environment when required. Sedona retains current versions of software releases for optimal support of today’s demanding electrical requirements and internal integration to our Engineering organization.

An 81 layer board? Sedona’s combined Electrical, PCB, and Signal Integrity team work very closely and push the edge of manufacturing capabilities.

SME Design Review Service
In the design cycle, designers must contend with tight timelines, budgets, and technical challenges. Likewise, some portions of a design might be outsourced to an ODM partner in another country.

Acting as a second set of eyes, a PCB Design SME can review any design for good design practices and highlight any areas of concerns using a rating system. It is another tool that allows for the de-risking of the design.

DFx Verification
Enhancing our in-house quality checks, Valor Enterprise solves the problems of designs that keep coming back for revisions and alterations, and test runs that result in faulty boards and fully avoidable, expensive scrap. A DFx check is part of the Sedona process but also available as a stand alone service.
Valor

A DFx check is part of the Sedona process but is also available as a stand alone service.

Some of the checks performed are:

  • Same net spacing violations resulting in acid traps
  • Stubbed / Antenna Vias
  • Reduced annular ring
  • Plane analysis (metal to metal)
  • Net List analysis (process shorts & opens)
  • Solder mask checks (coverage)
  • Silk Screen checks (legibility)
  • Drill summary (counts, sizes, layers)
  • Part to Part spacing (assembly compatibility)
  • Test Point placement and coverage
  • BOM analysis

Project Management
Sedona has strong Project Management infrastructure to ensure your design job is completed on time and within budget. We effectively manage critical technical communication, change in scope, schedule and release to manufacturing and final deliverables.

PCB Fabrication & Assembly
Sedona can work with your existing supplier base or when needed, leverage our partnerships for quick-turn, prototype, and low volume requirements. On a case-by-case basis, Sedona will support the manufacturing requirements longer term and into production.
