Superior Routing Service (SRS)
With our global partners, we offer SRS as a way to collaborate with an OEM internal PCB Group to accelerate the design process from placement and routing through manufacturing with powerful features such as design partitioning and multiple shifts. SRS is production-proven to increase productivity and help engineers quickly ramp up to product release.
