Why must a PCB have impedance control?
Introduction In PCB design and manufacturing, impedance control is a critical technical requirement. To understand its necessity, we first clarify the basic concept of impedance and then explore its types, impacts, and practical applications in PCBs. 1. What is impedance? In a circuit that has resistance, inductance, and capacitance, the blocking effect these parts have […]
Signal Integrity Design and PCB Test Methods
Signal integrity design is an important part of PCB design. There are many test methods today. Broadly, they fall into three groups: Not every method fits every case, and many types of instruments are needed. Know the features of each test method, then pick the right method for the object you test. That choice will […]
How to Ensure BOM Accuracy Before PCB Assembly
To ensure BOM accuracy before PCB assembly, we always systematically verify every detail and follow a structured review process. A single error in a BOM can lead to costly setbacks. A BOM (Bill of Material), lists every component and instruction needed for PCB assembly. BOM inaccuracies pose tangible risk to manufacturing operations, including project delays, […]
How to optimise PCB cost by Choosing Copper Thickness
When our clients design printed circuit boards, they often face the challenge of optimising costs while maintaining reliable electrical performance. Copper thickness directly influences both the price and function of every PCB. By making informed decisions, you can avoid unnecessary expenses while ensuring reliable performance. Copper Thickness and PCB Cost Increasing copper thickness will increase PCB costs from […]
What is PCB surface finish?
Introduction PCB surface finish is the metal connection between the bare copper on the board and the parts that solder to it. A PCB has a base copper surface. Without a protective coating, the base copper will oxidize easily. So we need a surface finish to protect the copper and to give a solderable surface […]
PCB Copper Surface Oxidation in Production
Introduction In double-sided and multilayer PCB production, copper surface oxidation is a serious problem. After copper deposition and whole-board plating, the copper on the board surface and inside holes, especially small holes, can oxidize during the time before pattern transfer. This oxidation harms the quality of pattern transfer and subsequent plating. Inner layers also show […]
Як спроектувати багатошарову друковану плату?
Вступ Друковані плати (PCB) - одна з найважливіших частин електронної схеми, яка впливає на роботу пристрою. Знання того, як виготовляється друкована плата, допоможе вам правильно спроектувати її і вибрати правильного виробника. У промисловості близько 60% друкованих плат є багатошаровими. Попит на менші, швидші та сильніші пристрої стимулює [...].
Схема друкованої плати проти файлу проекту друкованої плати
Коли люди говорять про друковані плати, новачки часто плутають терміни “схема друкованої плати” і “файл проектування друкованої плати”. Вони вказують на різні речі. Знання різниці є ключем до створення друкованої плати, яка працює. Нижче компанія PCBA з Шеньчженя пояснює різницю між схемою друкованої плати і файлом проектування друкованої плати. Що таке [...]
