EI also offers its SMT (and other) PCB customers a full range of data verification services, running extensive DRC/DFM analysis on all incoming Gerber files, prototypes or production. Data verification of files ensures that problems in design are caught before the first prototypes are generated. This can be especially helpful with complex SMT boards where multiple types of soldering technology such as reflow and selective soldering might be used on the same assembly, for example, and require different design considerations.
