In PCB manufacturing, AI is used to carry out different tasks, and this has made the production process easier and more The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in electronic manufacturing services has grown quickly in the industry. In PCB … Continued
When electronic engineers create printed circuit boards (PCBs), they tend to leave many copper-free areas on the board. They are probably not aware of the technicalities of the PCB production process. A high percentage of the copper-free area on the board can have a negative impact on the product and leave it susceptible to early … Continued
WHAT IS A PCB TRACE WIDTH CALCULATOR? While you start a PCB design, this PCB trace calculator will help you to get the copper weight and circuit trace width. You can use our calculator to determine various printed circuit board trace components, such as trace temperature, maximum current, resistance, voltage drop and power dissipation. You … Continued
A printed circuit board (PCB) looks like a multi-layered cake or lasagna or layers of different materials are laminated together by heat and adhesive in the fabrication process. Roughly, 85 out of 100 modern-day electronic devices or products makes use of PCB which brings about its importance in the electrical world. Also, with PCB circuits … Continued
Does high temperature and humidity have any affect to PCB (printed circuit board)? Printed circuit boards is the core component in any electronic devices, it is manufactured out by complicated production process with composing from copper and other polymer chemical materials. So, does high temperature and high humidity have any impact on PCB? The answer … Continued
How to set-up PCB track (routing) corners in PCB layout? Which is better option, 45° corner or rounded corner? Can be layout as 90° corner? The trace corner of high-speed track is always a hot topic when we talk PCB design and layout. A lot of PCB designers have the opinions of that high speed … Continued
High quality of PCB design or layout will take much convenience to PCB fabrication & manufacturing process, and improve the ratability of the SMT assembly process The guidelines shown here are focused in a few key points that will help you with routing, manufacturability, basic signal integrity, and PCB assembly. 1. The spacing size between … Continued
PCB surface finishing technology When surface finish (also called surface coating) defined to a PCB it means an intermetallic joint between the exposed bare copper of the solder-able area of the circuit board and the electronic components, this excluding the area of solder mask. Printed circuit boards without a protective coating would be susceptible to … Continued
Specifically, both specification of the IPC-A-6012 and the IPC-A-600 are guiding documents made for the bare printed circuit boards. IPC-A-600: is a specification and document for the inspection criteria of PCB, which is a the visual representation of the IPC-A-6012 document. IPC-A-6012: is a guiding document for the PCB manufacturing process. IPC-A-610: is a guiding document for the acceptability of … Continued
When it comes to talk about PCBs (printed circuit boards), nearly it is impossible to get a fixed answer that how many layers you can have. Some IC test mainboards even have nearly a hundred layers in their construction; but, the most consuming electronic products only have common layered PCBs usually from two to four … Continued
