The Truth about PCB Copper Weight Selection – 1oz vs. 2oz vs. 3oz
At PCB Trace we manufacture various types of Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) with copper weight selected according to the application of the board. Designers often require a specific copper thickness when accommodating the current requirement of their design. We offer a variety of copper weights to help you meet your design requirements. Definition of PCB […]
Learn MoreHole Breakout in PCB Manufacturing
Hole breakout is an important manufacturing defect in printed circuit boards (PCBs), particularly in multilayer, high-density interconnect (HDI), and fine-line PCB fabrication. During PCB manufacturing, drilled holes must be accurately positioned within their corresponding copper pads, lands, or internal-layer connections. The copper area surrounding a drilled hole is known as the annular ring, and sufficient […]
Learn MoreAdditive PCB Manufacturing vs. Conventional Processes for PCB Prototyping
Most manufacturers still maintain their conventional processes for making PCBs, or Printed Circuit Boards. However, this scenario is now changing. Many are upgrading their fabrication techniques for making PCBs, moving towards additive manufacturing, as they see the advantages. We, at PCB Trace Technologies Inc., a prominent high-quality PCB manufacturer, bring you this article to illustrate […]
Learn MoreReliability and Testing Strategies for Mission-Critical PCB Applications
Testing PCBs for reliability is an extensive procedure involving multiple tests. PCB manufacturers use reliability testing to identify design flaws, making it an essential process before they can offer their circuit boards to their customers. Here, at PCB Trace Technologies Inc., we offer an overview of reliability and testing strategies for mission-critical PCB applications, the […]
Learn MoreHDI Routing Strategies for PCBs
HDI or High-Density Interconnect printed circuit boards need to achieve highly dense designs without compromising the functionality of the circuit. For this, designers must use the latest design strategies and manufacturing technologies. One of the techniques they use is HDI routing, which involves using multiple routing layers, smaller vias and pads, narrower traces, and thinner […]
