Reasons for Common PCB Design Errors

Image
 When relying on printed circuit boards to achieve the desired functionality of a product, even a small error can lead to significant setbacks in your operation. That's why it's so crucial to address everything correctly at the first instance. Of course, this isn't always possible—but if you plan ahead and carefully avoid these mishaps, you're more likely to be 100% satisfied with the final outcome. Reasons for Common PCB Design Errors 1.Overly Complex Design: The PCB manufacturing process is already quite complex. Ideally, your PCB assembly factory would prefer to manufacture printed circuit boards in the most cost-effective manner. Overly complex designs can complicate this process and may actually put the functionality of the circuit board at risk. Collaborate with your PCB assembly partner to ensure that circuit boards are constructed in a simple and efficient manner, avoiding unnecessary delays and reducing costs. 2.Incorrect or Missing Gerber Files: Gerber files ...

How to remove PCB welded residues

Image
 The welded residue on the PCB is mainly salt substances that are not completely volatile or reaction to the solder reactions during the welding process. These residues may have adverse effects on the performance and service life of PCB , so they need to be removed in time. Common welded residues include residues of rosin welds and residues of organic acid welds. The residue of the rosin welded is mainly composed of polymer pine fragrance, undesirable activation agent, and salt generated between the rosin and melting welded welded during welding. These substances swell after the moisture absorption, and some substances also respond to water with water. The residues of organic acid welds are mainly composed of a variety of organic acids, and also contain some compounds that can produce halogen ions at high temperatures. This type of residue is the most difficult to remove salt formed by organic acids and solder formation. They have strong adsorption properties and poor solubility. I...

 In PCB board design, circuit design is the most basic for engineers. However, many engineers often be cautious when designing with complex and difficult PCB boards, but ignore some places to pay attention to when the basic PCB board design, which leads to errors. It can cause a perfect circuit diagram to have problems when converted into a PCB board or break completely. Therefore, in order to help engineers reduce design changes in PCB board design and improve work efficiency, several aspects should be paid attention to during the PCB board design process. 1. Make physical border The closed physical boundary is important for future component layout and wiring, and it must be accurate, otherwise installation problems will occur in the future. In the corner, it is best to use the arc. On the one hand, it can avoid scratching workers with sharp corners, and at the same time, it can reduce the stress effect. 2 component layout The layout of components has a great impact on the qualit...

Why do I need to perform the PCB layer?
