Optimum Via Size For Your PCBs
PCBs or Printed Circuit Boards use various types of vias—through types, tented vias, blind vias, buried vias, stacked vias, staggered vias, and via in pad. Most designers know that the via type they use affects its size. In this article, PCB Trace Technologies Inc. discusses the restrictions typically present on PCB via size and the […]
Learn MoreAll About Irregularly Shaped PCBs
Most PCB designers have designed their boards in mostly rectangular or square shapes. However, when the enclosure is in an irregular shape, they have two choices—to continue with a rectangular/square shape that is considerably smaller than the enclosure or to design irregularly shaped PCBs that closely match the enclosure shape. In the first case, the […]
Learn MoreChallenges of LED PCBs Design
PCBs or Printed Circuit Boards for LEDs or light-emitting diodes are different from other circuit board designs, as the boards must help dissipate the excess heat generated by the LEDs when they are in operation. Although LED PCBs are the foundation of LED lighting systems, one of the core problems in LED PCB design is […]
Learn MoreElectronic PCB Prototyping Versus Full-Spec Production
Eminent PCB or printed circuit board manufacturers such as PCB Trace Technologies Inc. offer two major types of services—one for PCB prototyping, and the other for full-spec production of PCBs. Here, we compare the two services and enumerate the requirements that the two services fulfil. What is PCB Prototyping? With the PCB prototyping service, the […]
Learn MoreRole of Artificial Intelligence in PCB Assembly Process
The rapid growth of electronic products has made the productivity and quality requirements of manufacturing electronic products rather complicated and strict. While end consumers demand higher quality and stability from electronic products during their entire life cycle, product engineering teams require that the design of PCBs or printed circuit boards use small and precisely placed […]
