1. Time Savings One of the most significant benefits of Turnkey PCB assembly is the time savings it offers. By outsourcing your PCB Assembly to a reliable provider, you can focus on other aspects of your business, such as product development, marketing, and sales. The assembly process is handled by […]

What is a Board Stiffener? A board stiffener is a device used to add rigidity and support to printed circuit boards (PCBs) or other thin, flat materials. It is typically made of a strong, lightweight material such as aluminum or steel and is attached to the back of the board […]

Introduction to

Introduction to Buried vias A buried via is a type of interconnect used in multi-layer printed circuit boards (PCBs) to electrically connect two or more inner layers without being visible on the top or bottom outer layers of the board. Buried vias are “buried” in the inner layers of the […]

What is Impedance? Before diving into Controlled Impedance, let’s first define impedance itself. Impedance is a measure of opposition to alternating current (AC) in an electrical circuit. It is similar to resistance, but while resistance applies to direct current (DC), impedance encompasses both resistance and reactance, which is the opposition […]

What is the Gerber format? The Gerber format is a vector-based data format that describes the layout of a PCB. It consists of a set of files, each representing a specific layer or aspect of the PCB design. These files contain information about the copper traces, solder mask, silkscreen, drill […]

Introduction to Multi Layer PCB Design Multi layer printed circuit boards (PCBs) have become increasingly common in modern electronics due to their ability to accommodate complex circuitry in a compact form factor. By stacking multiple layers of conductive copper and insulating substrate material, designers can route a high density of […]

What are HDI PCBs? HDI PCBs are printed circuit boards that feature higher wiring density and smaller vias compared to traditional PCBs. They are characterized by their fine pitch traces, micro-vias, and buried/blind vias, which allow for more compact and complex designs. HDI technology enables the manufacturing of PCBs with […]

Eagle PCB design software gets significant upgrade in latest update The popular EAGLE PCB design software from Autodesk has received a major update, introducing a host of powerful new features and improvements for electronics engineers and PCB designers. EAGLE, which stands for Easily Applicable Graphical Layout Editor, is widely used […]
