DfR Solutions, a provider of quality, reliability, and durability (QRD) research and consulting for the electronics industry, has launched its Sherlock automated design analysis software for analyzing, grading, and certifying the expected reliability of products at the circuit card assembly level. The software tool is designed to enable electronics manufacturers to design product reliability earlier in the product development process, contributing to quicker time to market, reduced development costs, improved customer satisfaction, and higher profits.
“Product reliability is critical to profitability in electronics manufacturing,” says Craig Hillman, PhD, the CEO and founder of DfR Solutions. “With results in hours instead of days, Sherlock enables design and reliability engineers in the electronics manufacturing industry to develop better, more reliable products quicker and more efficiently.
