Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of PCB design technology, specifically to a report parsing method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of printed circuit board (PCB) design, Cadence software, as a widely used electronic design automation tool, provides designers with powerful PCB design capabilities. As the complexity of PCB designs continues to increase, the requirements for design quality and manufacturability are becoming increasingly stringent. Design for Manufacturability (DFM) checks have become a crucial step in ensuring a smooth transition of PCB designs to the production stage.

[0003] In the PCB design process, designers typically perform detailed PCB routing design on the Cadence Allegro platform, generating an Allegro board file (PCB design routing file). This is the core file of the entire design, recording all key information such as routing and components on the circuit board. After completing the initial design, to ensure manufacturability, designers use the professional DFM analysis tool software Valor NPI for inspection. Valor NPI can generate a detailed ValorCheck Report (DFM inspection analysis report), which includes various potential manufacturing issues, such as insufficient trace width, excessive spacing, and unsuitable via sizes.

[0004] To ensure that PCB designs meet manufacturing process requirements, designers need to analyze the Valor Check Report and make targeted modifications to the PCB based on the analysis results. However, currently, designers typically analyze the Valor Check Report manually, which presents many inconveniences. Manually identifying key issues is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also cumbersome, inefficient, and prone to omissions and errors. Summary of the Invention

[0031] Please see Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the hardware structure of an electronic device 10 provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0032] This application provides a report parsing method that can be applied to one or more electronic devices 10. The electronic device 10 is a device that can automatically perform numerical calculations and / or information processing according to pre-set or stored instructions. Its hardware includes, but is not limited to, microprocessors, application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), digital signal processors (DSPs), embedded devices, etc.

[0033] Specifically, the electronic device 10 is used to: parse a report file of a printed circuit board to obtain report data, wherein the report data includes a number, problem information, and problem image corresponding to at least one problem related to the printed circuit board; display a first interface including a first area and a second area, wherein the first area includes a number selection bar and an information display bar; receive a number input by a user from the number selection bar; determine a target number from the numbers corresponding to at least one problem based on the number input by the user; determine the problem information corresponding to the target number as the target problem information; determine the problem image corresponding to the target number as the target problem image; display the target problem information in the information display bar; and display the target problem image in the second area.

[0034] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 can be communicatively connected to devices such as desktop computers, laptops, handheld computers, and cloud servers.

[0035] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 can interact with the user via a keyboard, mouse, remote control, touchpad, or voice control device.

[0036] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 may further include network devices and / or client devices. These network devices include, but are not limited to, a single network server, a server group consisting of multiple network servers, and a cloud server based on cloud computing, consisting of a large number of hosts or network servers.

[0037] In some embodiments of this application, the network where the electronic device 10 is located includes, but is not limited to, the Internet, wide area network, metropolitan area network, local area network, virtual private network (VPN), etc.

[0038] Please see Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the steps of a report parsing method provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0039] Specifically, the report parsing method includes the following steps. Depending on different needs, the order of some steps in the flowchart can be changed, and some steps can be omitted.

[0040] Step S10: Parse the report file of the printed circuit board to obtain the report data.

[0041] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 has an automated script for automatically parsing report files pre-stored within it. Before parsing the report file of the printed circuit board, the automated script needs to be run in advance, and the report file to be parsed needs to be selected. The automated script is then used to automatically read the report file and extract the report data from it.

[0042] It should be noted that this application utilizes the SKILL language, a secondary development language provided within the Cadence software, to implement automation scripting functionality. SKILL is a powerful programming language suitable for both simple tasks and complex application development. It can interact with the underlying system and provides rich interfaces to access various tools within the Cadence software. Designers can use SKILL to access resources on the Cadence platform and develop automation scripts based on them. By writing corresponding SKILL scripts, the function of automatically reading report files is achieved, allowing designers to directly load and view the entire report file within the Cadence software environment. This tightly integrates DFM analysis results with PCB design, improving design efficiency and quality, ensuring the design meets production requirements in terms of manufacturability, and reducing potential problems and costs in subsequent production stages.

[0043] In some embodiments of this application, the PCB report file refers to the DFM inspection report generated by the auditing software Valor, used to detect potential problems in the PCB design. The report file includes, but is not limited to, the problem's ID, title, status, priority, image, coordinates (X, Y), measurement value, layer number, reference designator (Refdes), and last discussion.

[0044] In some embodiments of this application, the report data includes a number corresponding to at least one PCB-related issue, issue information (e.g., name, coordinates, layer), and an image of the issue. The issue information for each issue includes the layer and coordinates corresponding to that issue.

[0045] Step S11: Display a first interface including a first area and a second area.

[0046] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 may utilize automated scripts to display a first interface.

[0047] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 3 As shown, the first interface includes a first area and a second area. The first area is used to display the content of the problem (such as the number, problem information, etc.), and the second area is used to display the image of the problem.

[0048] In some embodiments of this application, the first area includes a number selection bar ( Figure 3 The system includes an ID field and an information display field. The ID selection field displays the issue number; users can enter the ID number of the issue they wish to review. The information display field shows the issue's details.

[0049] Step S12: Receive the number input by the user from the number selection bar, determine the target number from the numbers corresponding to at least one question based on the number input by the user, determine the question information corresponding to the target number as the target question information, and determine the question image corresponding to the target number as the target question image.

[0050] Specifically, the electronic device 10 determines the target number, the target problem information, and the target problem image corresponding to the target number from the report data based on the number input by the user, wherein the target number is the same as the number input by the user.

[0051] Step S13: Display the target problem information in the information display bar and the target problem image in the second area.

[0052] In some embodiments of this application, the information display bar includes a quantity display field ( Figure 3 The Total column shown), and the name display field ( Figure 3 The Title bar shown), layer display field ( Figure 3 The Layer column shown), coordinate display field ( Figure 3 The XY columns shown), and the numerical description field ( Figure 3 (See the Value column shown). The Quantity field displays the total number of issues in the report data. The Name field displays the name of the target issue. The Layer field displays the layer corresponding to the target issue. The Coordinate field displays the coordinates corresponding to the target issue. The Numerical Description field displays the measured value of the target issue.

[0053] In the above embodiments, report data is obtained by parsing the report file of the printed circuit board. The report data includes a number, problem information, and problem image corresponding to at least one problem related to the printed circuit board. A first interface is displayed, including a first area and a second area. The first area includes a number selection bar and an information display bar. A number input by the user is received from the number selection bar. A target number is determined from the numbers corresponding to at least one problem based on the user-input number. The problem information corresponding to the target number is determined as the target problem information, and the problem image corresponding to the target number is determined as the target problem image. The target problem information is displayed in the information display bar, and the target problem image is displayed in the second area. Based on this, this application can automatically parse the report file and extract the number, problem information, and problem image corresponding to the problem. This reduces repetitive manual operations by the user, avoids errors caused by manual mistakes, improves review efficiency, and shortens review time. Furthermore, it can quickly display the corresponding problem information and problem image based on the problem number input by the user, eliminating the need to view the entire report item by item. It allows for arbitrary switching of the review order, saving a significant amount of time. Furthermore, displaying problems through a combination of images and text helps users understand the problems more accurately, reducing misunderstandings or omissions and improving the accuracy and reliability of the review. By displaying the problem number, problem information, and problem image on the first interface, users can quickly understand the details of the problem, which facilitates the development of modification plans for the PCB design. In turn, users can adjust the PCB design in a timely manner to ensure that the PCB design meets the manufacturing process requirements.

[0054] In some embodiments of this application, efficient linkage and positioning are difficult to achieve when switching between Allegro board file and Valor Check Report, which is not conducive to designers making targeted adjustments to the PCB design based on the feedback in the report. Therefore, the report parsing method also includes: Step S14: Display the second interface, determine the target problem area in the layer corresponding to the target problem based on the layer and coordinates corresponding to the target problem, and display the target problem area on the second interface.

[0055] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 may use an automated script to display a second interface, wherein the second interface is used to display the target problem area.

[0056] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 4 As shown, the electronic device 10 can automatically open to the relevant layer of the PCB (such as top layer, bottom layer, inner layer, etc.) according to the layer corresponding to the target problem, and further display the target problem area in the second interface according to the coordinates of the target problem in the layer corresponding to the target problem, that is, the magnified view of the target problem in the corresponding layer.

[0057] In the above embodiments, by automatically opening the layer corresponding to the target problem based on the layer and coordinates of the target problem, and automatically displaying the target problem area on the second interface, it is convenient for users to view the detailed view of the target problem, facilitate the formulation of accurate modification plans, improve the accuracy of review, and allow users to directly adjust the PCB design to ensure that the PCB design meets the manufacturing process requirements.

[0058] Step S15: Based on the coordinates corresponding to the target problem, indicate the target problem in the target problem area using a preset indicator.

[0059] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 4 As shown, the indicator can be an arrow, and this application does not limit this.

[0060] In the above embodiments, based on the coordinates corresponding to the target problem, the target problem on the target problem area is indicated by a preset indicator, which allows users to intuitively and quickly locate the location of the target problem without manual searching or looking, simplifying the operation process, reducing human error, and enabling users to quickly adjust the PCB design by combining the indication of the indicator, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0061] In some embodiments of this application, the report parsing method further includes: Step S16: Receive feedback information from the user on the target problem from the problem remarks column, and store the target problem number, target problem information, target problem image, and feedback information in a preset feedback file.

[0062] In some embodiments of this application, the first area also includes a problem remarks column ( Figure 3The Notes section (as shown) is used to display user feedback. This feedback includes, but is not limited to, the user's modifications to the target issue.

[0063] In the above embodiments, the electronic device 10 receives feedback information on the target problem input by the user from the problem remarks column, and stores the target number, target problem information, target problem image, and feedback information in a preset feedback file (valor feedback list.csv). This enables the design team to understand relevant information about PCB design in a timely manner, promotes teamwork and information sharing, and improves work efficiency.

[0064] In some embodiments of this application, the report parsing method further includes: Step S17: In response to the user's selection of the processing status option, determine the processing status of the target problem and store the processing status in the feedback file.

[0065] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 3 As shown, the first area also includes processing status options ( Figure 3 The Status option is shown below. The processing status options include "N" and "F". When the user selects "N", the processing status of the target problem is unresolved; when the user selects "F", the processing status of the target problem is resolved.

[0066] In other embodiments, the first area also includes a processing status description bar, where the user can enter relevant descriptive information in the box below the processing status option after selecting the corresponding processing status option. For example, when the user selects "N", they can enter the reason why the problem remains unresolved in the box below the processing status option.

[0067] In the above embodiments, by allowing users to select processing status options in the first area, users can update the processing status of the target issue in real time, avoiding duplicate reviews and ensuring that users complete the review of each issue. Storing the processing status in the feedback archive ensures that team members can clearly understand the latest processing status of the target issue, reducing redundant communication and confirmation among team members and improving work efficiency.

[0068] Please see Figure 5 This is a flowchart of a report parsing method provided in another embodiment of this application.

[0069] Specifically, the report parsing method includes the following steps. Depending on different needs, the order of some steps in the flowchart can be changed, and some steps can be omitted.

[0070] Step S20: Parse the report file of the printed circuit board to obtain the report data.

[0071] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 has an automated script for automatically parsing report files pre-stored within it. Before parsing the report file of the printed circuit board, the automated script needs to be run in advance, and the report file to be parsed needs to be selected. The automated script is then used to read the report file, thereby extracting the report data from the report file.

[0072] In some embodiments of this application, the printed circuit board (PCB) report refers to a design for manufacture (DFM) inspection report generated by the auditing software Valor, used to detect potential problems in the PCB design. The report includes, but is not limited to, the problem's ID, title, status, priority, image, coordinates (X, Y), value, layer number, reference designator (Refdes), and last discussion.

[0073] In some embodiments of this application, the report data includes a number corresponding to at least one PCB-related issue, issue information (e.g., name, coordinates, layer), and an image of the issue. The issue information for each issue includes the layer and coordinates corresponding to that issue.

[0074] Step S21: Display a first interface including a first area and a second area.

[0075] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 may utilize automated scripts to display a first interface.

[0076] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 3 As shown, the first interface includes a first area and a second area. The first area is used to display the content of the problem (such as the number, problem information, etc.), and the second area is used to display the image of the problem.

[0077] In some embodiments of this application, the first area includes a number selection bar ( Figure 3 The fields shown are the ID field and the information display field. The ID selection field displays the issue number. The information display field displays the issue information.

[0078] Step S22: In response to the user's click on any one of the multiple operation buttons, an operation instruction is generated.

[0079] In some embodiments of this application, the first area further includes multiple operation buttons, combined with Figure 3 As shown, there are multiple operation buttons, including but not limited to "prev" and "next". When the user clicks "prev", it means that the user wants to return to the previous question, and the operation is "return to the previous question". When the user clicks "next", it means that the user wants to switch to the next question, and the operation is "switch to the next question".

[0080] In other embodiments, the multiple operation buttons also include "exit". When a user clicks "exit", it indicates that the user wants to exit the review process, and the operation instruction is "exit review".

[0081] Step S23: Determine the target number based on the current number and operation instruction in the number selection bar, display the target number in the number selection bar, determine the problem information corresponding to the target number as the target problem information, and determine the problem image corresponding to the target number as the target problem image.

[0082] In some embodiments of this application, if the operation is "return to previous item" and the current number in the number selection bar is 3, then the target number is 2; if the operation is "switch to next item" and the current number in the number selection bar is 3, then the target number is 4.

[0083] Step S24: Display the target problem information in the information display bar and the target problem image in the second area.

[0084] In some embodiments of this application, the information display bar includes a quantity display field ( Figure 3 The Total column shown), and the name display field ( Figure 3 The Title bar shown), layer display field ( Figure 3 The Layer column shown), coordinate display field ( Figure 3 The XY columns shown), and the numerical description field ( Figure 3 (See the Value column shown). The Quantity field displays the total number of issues in the report data. The Name field displays the name of the target issue. The Layer field displays the layer corresponding to the target issue. The Coordinate field displays the coordinates corresponding to the target issue. The Numerical Description field displays the measured value of the target issue.

[0085] In the above embodiments, report data is obtained by parsing the report file of the printed circuit board. The report data includes a number, problem information, and problem image corresponding to at least one problem related to the printed circuit board. A first interface is displayed, including a first area and a second area. The first area includes a number selection bar and an information display bar. An operation instruction is generated in response to the user clicking any one of the multiple operation buttons. A target number is determined based on the current number in the number selection bar and the operation instruction, and the target number is displayed in the number selection bar. The problem information corresponding to the target number is determined as the target problem information, and the problem image corresponding to the target number is determined as the target problem image. The target problem information is displayed in the information display bar, and the target problem image is displayed in the second area. Based on this, this application can automatically parse report files and extract the corresponding issue numbers, issue information, and issue images. This reduces repetitive manual operations by users, avoids errors caused by manual mistakes, improves review efficiency, and shortens review time. Furthermore, it can quickly display the corresponding issue information and issue images based on the issue number entered by the user, eliminating the need to view the entire report item by item and allowing for flexible switching of the review order, saving significant time. Moreover, by presenting issues through a combination of images and text, it helps users understand the issues more accurately, reducing misunderstandings or omissions and improving the accuracy and reliability of the review. By displaying the issue number, issue information, and issue image on the first interface, users can quickly understand the details of the issue, facilitating the development of modification plans for the PCB design. This allows users to adjust the PCB design in a timely manner, ensuring that the PCB design meets manufacturing process requirements.

[0086] In some embodiments of this application, the report parsing method further includes: Step S25: Display the second interface, determine the target problem area in the layer corresponding to the target problem based on the layer and coordinates corresponding to the target problem, and display the target problem area on the second interface.

[0087] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 may use an automated script to display a second interface, wherein the second interface is used to display the target problem area.

[0088] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 4 As shown, the electronic device 10 can automatically open to the relevant layer of the PCB (such as top layer, bottom layer, inner layer, etc.) according to the layer corresponding to the target problem, and further display the target problem area in the second interface according to the coordinates of the target problem in the layer corresponding to the target problem, that is, the magnified view of the target problem in the corresponding layer.

[0089] In the above embodiments, by automatically opening the layer corresponding to the target problem based on the layer and coordinates of the target problem, and automatically displaying the target problem area on the second interface, it is convenient for users to view the detailed view of the target problem, facilitate the formulation of accurate modification plans, improve the accuracy of review, and allow users to directly adjust the PCB design to ensure that the PCB design meets the manufacturing process requirements.

[0090] In some embodiments of this application, the report parsing method further includes: Step S26: Based on the coordinates corresponding to the target problem, indicate the target problem in the target problem area using a preset indicator.

[0091] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 4 As shown, the indicator can be an arrow, and this application does not limit this.

[0092] In the above embodiments, based on the coordinates corresponding to the target problem, the target problem on the target problem area is indicated by a preset indicator, which allows users to intuitively and quickly locate the location of the target problem without manual searching or looking, simplifying the operation process, reducing human error, and enabling users to quickly adjust the PCB design by combining the indication of the indicator, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0093] In some embodiments of this application, the report parsing method further includes: Step S27: Receive feedback information from the user on the target problem from the problem remarks column, and store the target problem number, target problem information, target problem image, and feedback information in a preset feedback file.

[0094] In some embodiments of this application, the first area also includes a problem remarks column ( Figure 3 The Notes section (as shown) is used to display user feedback. This feedback includes, but is not limited to, the user's modifications to the target issue.

[0095] In the above embodiments, the electronic device 10 receives feedback information on the target problem input by the user from the problem remarks column, and stores the target number, target problem information, target problem image, and feedback information in a preset feedback file (valor feedback list.csv). This enables the design team to understand relevant information about PCB design in a timely manner, promotes teamwork and information sharing, and improves work efficiency.

[0096] In some embodiments of this application, the report parsing method further includes: Step S28: In response to the user's selection of the processing status option, determine the processing status of the target problem and store the processing status in the feedback file.

[0097] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 3 As shown, the first area also includes processing status options ( Figure 3 The Status option is shown below. The processing status options include "N" and "F". When the user selects "N", the processing status of the target problem is unresolved; when the user selects "F", the processing status of the target problem is resolved.

[0098] In other embodiments, the first area also includes a processing status description bar, where the user can enter relevant descriptive information in the box below the processing status option after selecting the corresponding processing status option. For example, when the user selects "N", they can enter the reason why the problem remains unresolved in the box below the processing status option.

[0099] In the above embodiments, by allowing users to select processing status options in the first area, users can update the processing status of the target issue in real time, avoiding duplicate reviews and ensuring that users complete the review of each issue. Storing the processing status in the feedback archive ensures that team members can clearly understand the latest processing status of the target issue, reducing redundant communication and confirmation among team members and improving work efficiency.

[0100] In some embodiments of this application, the report parsing method further includes: if the operation instruction is "return to the previous item", the electronic device 10 can use a first preset color (e.g., red) to identify the number selection bar, thereby reminding the user that the current target issue is the issue that was reviewed in the previous item.

[0101] In some embodiments of this application, the report data includes N questions, and the report parsing method further includes: if the target number is the number of the Nth question in the report data, the number selection bar is marked with a second preset color (e.g., green), and a preset prompt box is displayed, wherein the prompt box is used to prompt the user that the parsing of the report file has been completed, thereby reminding the user that the current target question is the last question in the report file.

[0102] Please see Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the functional modules of a report parsing device 100 provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0103] In this embodiment, based on the above... Figure 3The report parsing method in the illustrated embodiments shares the same concept. This application also provides a report parsing apparatus 100, which can be used to execute the above-described report parsing method. For ease of explanation, the schematic diagram of the composition of the report parsing apparatus 100 embodiment only shows the parts related to the embodiments of this application. Those skilled in the art will understand that the illustrated structure does not constitute a limitation on the report parsing apparatus 100, and may include more or fewer components than illustrated, or combine certain components, or have different component arrangements.

[0104] Specifically, the report parsing device 100 provided in this application embodiment includes a parsing module 110, a first display module 120, a determination module 130, and a second display module 140.

[0105] The parsing module 110 is used to parse the report file of the printed circuit board to obtain the report data.

[0106] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 has an automated script for automatically parsing report files pre-stored within it. Before parsing the report file of the printed circuit board, the automated script needs to be run in advance, and the report file to be parsed needs to be selected. The automated script is then used to automatically read the report file and extract the report data from it.

[0107] It should be noted that this application utilizes the SKILL language, a secondary development language provided within the Cadence software, to implement automation scripting functionality. SKILL is a powerful programming language suitable for both simple tasks and complex application development. It can interact with the underlying system and provides rich interfaces to access various tools within the Cadence software. Designers can use SKILL to access resources on the Cadence platform and develop automation scripts based on them. By writing corresponding SKILL scripts, the function of automatically reading report files is achieved, allowing designers to directly load and view the entire report file within the Cadence software environment. This tightly integrates DFM analysis results with PCB design, improving design efficiency and quality, ensuring the design meets production requirements in terms of manufacturability, and reducing potential problems and costs in subsequent production stages.

[0108] In some embodiments of this application, the printed circuit board (PCB) report refers to a design for manufacture (DFM) inspection report generated by the auditing software Valor, used to detect potential problems in the PCB design. The report includes, but is not limited to, the problem's ID, title, status, priority, image, coordinates (X, Y), value, layer number, reference designator (Refdes), and last discussion.

[0109] In some embodiments of this application, the report data includes a number corresponding to at least one PCB-related issue, issue information (e.g., name, coordinates, layer), and an image of the issue. The issue information for each issue includes the layer and coordinates corresponding to that issue.

[0110] The first display module 120 is used to display a first interface including a first area and a second area.

[0111] In some embodiments of this application, the electronic device 10 may utilize automated scripts to display a first interface.

[0112] In some embodiments of this application, combined with Figure 3 As shown, the first interface includes a first area and a second area. The first area is used to display the content of the problem (such as the number, problem information, etc.), and the second area is used to display the image of the problem.

[0113] In some embodiments of this application, the first area includes a number selection bar ( Figure 3 The system includes an ID field and an information display field. The ID selection field displays the issue number; users can enter the ID number of the issue they wish to review. The information display field shows the issue's details.

[0114] The determination module 130 is used to receive the number input by the user from the number selection bar, determine the target number from the numbers corresponding to at least one question based on the number input by the user, determine the question information corresponding to the target number as the target question information, and determine the question image corresponding to the target number as the target question image.

[0115] Specifically, the electronic device 10 determines the target number, the target problem information, and the target problem image corresponding to the target number from the report data based on the number input by the user, wherein the target number is the same as the number input by the user.

[0116] The second display module 140 is used to display target problem information in the information display bar and display target problem image in the second area.

[0117] In some embodiments of this application, the information display bar includes a quantity display field ( Figure 3 The Total column shown), and the name display field ( Figure 3 The Title bar shown), layer display field ( Figure 3 The Layer column shown), coordinate display field ( Figure 3 The XY columns shown), and the numerical description field ( Figure 3 (See the Value column shown). The Quantity field displays the total number of issues in the report data. The Name field displays the name of the target issue. The Layer field displays the layer corresponding to the target issue. The Coordinate field displays the coordinates corresponding to the target issue. The Numerical Description field displays the measured value of the target issue.

[0118] In the above embodiments, report data is obtained by parsing the report file of the printed circuit board. The report data includes a number, problem information, and problem image corresponding to at least one problem related to the printed circuit board. A first interface is displayed, including a first area and a second area. The first area includes a number selection bar and an information display bar. A number input by the user is received from the number selection bar. A target number is determined from the numbers corresponding to at least one problem based on the user-input number. The problem information corresponding to the target number is determined as the target problem information, and the problem image corresponding to the target number is determined as the target problem image. The target problem information is displayed in the information display bar, and the target problem image is displayed in the second area. Based on this, this application can automatically parse the report file and extract the number, problem information, and problem image corresponding to the problem. This reduces repetitive manual operations by the user, avoids errors caused by manual mistakes, improves review efficiency, and shortens review time. Furthermore, it can quickly display the corresponding problem information and problem image based on the problem number input by the user, eliminating the need to view the entire report item by item. It allows for arbitrary switching of the review order, saving a significant amount of time. Furthermore, displaying problems through a combination of images and text helps users understand the problems more accurately, reducing misunderstandings or omissions and improving the accuracy and reliability of the review. By displaying the problem number, problem information, and problem image on the first interface, users can quickly understand the details of the problem, which facilitates the development of modification plans for the PCB design. In turn, users can adjust the PCB design in a timely manner to ensure that the PCB design meets the manufacturing process requirements.
