PCB design guidelines are created as benchmarks for circuit design engineers to meet the industry standards. Following these guidelines will ensure better manufacturability and robust product ...

Although PCBs are the basic foundational block for all electronic circuits in today’s generation, it is essential to follow several rules and guidelines while designing the circuits. These rules are ...

Bringing a modern PCB design together into reality is often the real test. The third part of this series offers practical ...

Manufacturing challenges below 8mil. When drill to trace spacing falls below 8 mil, the PCB moves into a far more complex manufacturing zone. Standard mechanical drilling is often insufficient, and ...

This white paper is designed to guide you through the intricacies of rigid-flex printed circuit board (PCB) design. In today’s electronics industry, there has never been more demand for compact, ...

This article provides common-sense printed-circuit-board (PCB) processing edge and array guidelines that should give most assemblers a good chance at efficiently populating the PCB assemblies (PCBAs) ...

Via in pad seems to be one of the hot topics these days. It's a bit of a tough one, too. The SMT guys pretty much always say, "don't ever do it." However, with certain parts, the component ...
