Eight Principles of PCB Design

Summary of Multilayer Board (BUM-PCB)

Build up Multilayer PCB, BUM refers to the application of insulating dielectric on the insulating substrate, or the traditional double-panel or multi-layer board, and then electroless copper plating and electroplating copper to form wires and connecting holes. A multilayer printed board requiring a number of layers.

Overview of High Precision Technology for PCBs

The high precision of printed circuits refers to the use of fine line width/pitch, micro holes, narrow ring width (or no ring width), and buried, blind holes and other technologies to achieve high density. The high precision means that the result of "fine, small, narrow, thin" will inevitably bring high precision. Take the line width as an example: O.20mm line width, and O.16-0.24mm is qualified according to the regulations. The error is (O.20 soil 0.04) mm; and the line width of O.10mm, the same error is (0.10±O.02) mm, obviously the accuracy of the latter is doubled, and so on is not difficult to understand. Therefore, the high precision requirements are not discussed separately. But it is a prominent problem in production technology.

Wiring Principles - Summary of High Quality PCB Design

The anti-jamming measures that are not common in some literatures are detailed below. Considering the practical application, especially in the trial production of products, double panels are still widely used. The following contents are mainly for double panels.

Component Arrangement - Summary of High Quality PCB Design

Reasonable layout of components is the basic premise for designing high quality PCB drawings. The requirements for component layout mainly include installation, stress, heat, signal and aesthetic requirements.

Introduction to HDI and circuit boards

Since the printed circuit board is not a general end product, the definition of the name is slightly confusing. For example, the motherboard for the personal computer is called the motherboard and cannot be directly called the circuit board. Although there is a circuit board in the motherboard, It's not the same, so when you evaluate the industry, you can't say the same thing. For example, because there are integrated circuit parts on the board, the news media called him an IC board, but in fact he is not equivalent to a printed circuit board.

Introduction to EDA software commonly used in circuit design

The below describes several EDA software commonly used in circuit design. There are many EDA softwares in this industry, such as transformer design, electrical design, integrated circuit design, etc., as well as a variety of microcontrollers. Simulation software.

POWERPCB tips

PowerPCB enables users to achieve high-quality design and vividly reflects all aspects of the electronics design industry. Its constraint-driven design approach reduces product completion time. You can define safety spacing, routing rules, and design rules for high-speed circuits for each signal, and apply these plans hierarchically to the board, to each layer, to each type of network, to each network, to each group. On the network, each pin is placed to ensure the correctness of the layout design. It includes a wide range of features including clustering tools, dynamic routing editing, dynamic electrical performance checks, automatic dimensioning and powerful CAM output capabilities. It also has the ability to integrate third-party software tools such as the SPECCTRA router.

PROTEL99 electrical coating addition, deletion and segmentation skills

The PROTEL99 electrical layer is divided into two types, the positive layer and the negative layer. These two layers have completely different properties and usage methods.

Common inductors, transformer detection methods and experience

Especially for beginners, it is necessary to master the testing methods and experience of common components.

Common capacitors detection methods and experience

Different methods must be used according to different components to judge whether the components are normal or not.

Commonly used resistor detection methods and experience

The detection of components is a basic skill of appliance repair. How to accurately and effectively detect the relevant parameters of components and determine whether the components are normal is not a one-size-fits-all thing.

Nine standards for RF in PCB design，mainly use 4-6 layers.

How to deal with moisture sensitive components in PCB design

The moisture sensitivity of plastic integrated circuits (ICs) is getting worse and worse, due to many industry trends, including the constant search for higher reliability products to support critical communications and technology applications.

Technical insights into the design of PCB design in the 3D world

PCB design tools have grown steadily in recent years to address the challenges of this increasingly complex design landscape. A major change – the adoption of 3D capabilities, is expected to allow designers to balance design innovation with the competitiveness of the global marketplace.

Power line and ground wire processing technology in PCB

In the PCB layout, the handling of the power and ground wires is very important. The noise interference generated by the power cables and ground wires should be minimized to ensure the quality of the products.

PCB layout three special routing skills

1. Right angle line (three aspects) 2. Differential traces ("equal length, equidistant, reference plane") 3. The snake line (adjustment delay)
