I’ve worked with small hardware startups and large defense companies, and one thing they tend to need is to help to navigate the electronics supply chain and manufacturing landscape. If you’re not involved in the industry, PCB manufacturing services can seem opaque and difficult to navigate, just like many other specialized services. Therefore, it’s often […]

As PCB board size requirements are getting smaller and smaller, the device density requirements are getting higher and higher, and the PCB board design is becoming more and more difficult. How to achieve a high routing rate of the PCB board and shorten the design time, let’s talk about the design skills of PCB board planning, layout […]
FR4 material is the most common grade dielectric material that is used in the fabrication of circuit boards. This material is incorporated in single-sided, double-sided, and multi-layered boards. Here are a few qualities of FR4 materials that make them popular: Wide range of operating temperatures (50°C to 115°C) Higher Tg value (about 180°C) Offers decent mechanical […]
1. Function And Characteristics Nickel plating is used as the substrate coating for precious metals and base metals on PCB (the abbreviation of Printed Circuit Board). It is also commonly used as a surface layer for some single-sided printed boards. For some surfaces that are heavily worn, such as switch contacts, contacts, or plug gold, using […]
PREPARATION BEFORE MAKING PCB PCB Design PCB design is usually done by converting your circuit’s schematic diagram into a PCB layout using PCB layout software. There are many cool open-source software packages for PCB layout creation and design. Some are listed here to give you a head-start: Autodesk Eagle PCBWizard Designing a Circuit Schematic in Autodesk Eagle p.s.In […]
1. Preliminary Work of Circuit Board Design in PCB processing 1.1 Use the schematic design tool to draw the schematic diagram and generate the corresponding network table. While in some special cases, such as the circuit board is relatively simple, and the network tabl e is already available, it is not necessary to design the […]
The upstream, midstream and downstream PCB industry will be shown in this article. PCB, commonly known as the printed circuit board, is the mother of electronic system products, covering 5G, cloud computing, consumer electronics, automobile, military industry, aerospace, and so on. The upstream of the PCB industry Upstream of the industrial chain is PCB raw […]
This list is from the PCB rank list of top 100 global PCB enterprises (ranking according to the output value of global PCB enterprises in 2020) released by Dr. Hayao Nakahara of NTI at the end of July 2021 for reference. This is his 25th ranking in global PCB enterprise output value. Thank him for […]
A bare board and the bare board testing process have critical roles to play in the printed circuit board (PCB) creation. In PCB development, the bare board layout determines your placement of through holes and electronic components. This PCB substrate also defines a finished board’s connections through its printed circuits. By using bare board testing […]
Until recently, lead was almost ubiquitous in the construction of printed circuit boards (PCBs). Due to its melting point and ability to form strong bonds between surfaces, a eutectic lead-tin alloy proved highly effective as a solder material. However, as electronic waste volumes increased, the use of lead in circuit boards came under scrutiny in […]
