Introduction Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are thin boards made of fiberglass and copper that allow electrical components to be mechanically supported and electrically connected. PCBs come in different layer counts, from simple single sided boards to complex boards with 16 or more layers. But a common question that arises is, […]

Introduction to PCB cores Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are the foundation of modern electronics. They provide the mechanical structure and electrical connections for components like integrated circuits, resistors, capacitors, and more. At the heart of every PCB is the core – also known as the substrate. This core material provides […]

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are an essential component of most electronic devices. They provide the foundation on which components are mounted and connected. When designing a PCB, one important consideration is thickness. A thicker PCB will be more durable and better at dissipating heat. However, thicker PCBs also cost more […]

Keywords: PCB, hard gold, thickness, plating, electronic circuits Printed circuit boards (PCBs) form the backbone of modern electronics. From computers to smartphones to medical devices – virtually every electronic product relies on PCBs to connect components and circuits. One key element in PCB design and manufacturing is the plating – […]

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are laminated sheets used to mechanically support and electrically connect electronic components using conductive pathways etched from copper sheets bonded to a non-conductive substrate. The thickness of the copper layers in a PCB can vary based on the current requirements and application. This article will explore […]

Introduction Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are essential components in virtually all modern electronics. They provide the foundation for mounting and connecting electronic components. A key part of PCB design and manufacturing is determining the right thickness of the copper layer. The copper thickness is commonly specified in terms of ounces […]

Flexible printed circuit boards (flex PCBs or flex circuits) are made from flexible dielectric materials with conductive copper traces on one or both sides. The copper thickness can vary based on the application requirements. This article explores the typical copper thickness used in flex PCBs and the factors that determine […]

Introduction A flex printed circuit board (PCB) is a type of printed circuit board that is flexible and can bend or flex. Flex PCBs consist of flexible dielectric substrate materials like polyimide that allow the board to flex and conform to different shapes without damage. They utilize conductive materials like […]

Introduction Flex circuits, also known as flexible printed circuits or flex PCBs, are thin, bendable circuit boards that connect electronic components. They are made from flexible insulating substrate materials like polyimide or polyester with conductive traces printed or bonded on the surface. Flex circuits can be designed with intricate shapes […]

Introduction Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are essential components in modern electronics that provide the mechanical structure and electrical connections for electronic components. While traditional rigid PCBs have served the electronics industry well, the emergence of smaller and more portable devices has driven the need for more flexible and space-saving PCB […]
