I am an Electrical Engineering student at Florida Atlantic University, in
Boca Raton, Florida, where I am presently taking a DFM class. My class project
is a paper titled "DFM Considerations for Rigid PCBs in Medical Applications"
and I am currently looking for material on this topic.
I am finding out that because DFM is a philosophy that encompasses things like
DFT, DFF, DFA, DFS, and lately Design for the Environment (DFE), information
on any of these topics is scattered around. I have found some
sources of information, mainly EDN and Printed Circuit Design magazines;
however, I didn't know there were DFM manuals in existence out there.
- Is this DFM manual your own effort, or a standard HADCO company doc?
- Does any one of the standards organizations, US and abroad, provide a
reference DFM document or is this something that is left up to the individual
companies to develop?
- How do certification programs, like ISO 9000, affect DFM?
I would like to read your DFM manual, and any sources of info you or anyone
else out there can provide will be greatly appreciated.

P.S. If there is enough interest I could post a compendium of DFM references,
Internet sites, and other materials after I finish my project.
