Does anyone out there have any inf. on test boards for proving out SM
Component pad shapes and components in a production environment. What has
been proposed is that we design a test board with as many different
components as possible following industry standards for placement. This
board will then be used by manufacturing to prove out their process
capabilities each time our EE's design a new part into one of our systems.

Has any one heard anything about such a board or its availability. I have
heard of a company called I believe "Topline" but don't have any inf. for
this at this time.

Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again for all of your help in the past and future.
