The customer is a globally leading manufacturer of communication equipment, specializing in the development and production of large-scale routers, switches, servers, and high-speed networking devices. As modern network communications demand increasingly high signal integrity, reliability, and thermal stability, the customer required an 18-layer PCB with low-loss material (S1000-2M) and advanced immersion gold plating to ensure stable signal transmission and long-term reliability
In printed circuit board (PCB) design, copper pads are points for attaching components with soldering. These pads come in two primary types: through-hole and surface-mount (SMD). Through-hole pads are designed for components with leads that are inserted through the pad’s holes and soldered on the opposite side of the board. This method ensures a mechanical and electrical bond between the component and the PCB, beneficial for long-term reliability. Read on as we discuss through-hole pad design.
In printed circuit board (PCB) design, the choice of pad type plays a critical role in determining the durability, reliability, and performance of the final product. Through-hole pads, which are designed for components with leads that pass through the PCB, offer superior mechanical and electrical connections compared to surface mount pads.
Low power circuit design includes strategies focused on minimizing both dynamic and static power usage in your printed circuit boards. While selecting components with low power requirements is a crucial element, low power PCB design involves more comprehensive considerations to effectively manage power consumption.
Copper current density refers to the amount of continuous current going through a copper wire —whether on a circuit board as a trace or not. According to the principles of Joule or Ohmic heating (represented as VI or I²R), any material that conducts electricity will generate heat, leading to a gradual rise in temperature in both the conductor and its surrounding environment.
The primary challenge of this project was ensuring that the high-frequency PCB maintained extremely low attenuation and distortion during signal transmission while preventing external interference from affecting signal quality.
kups is one of the most critical aspects of HDI PCB design. Vias in HDI PCBs offer greater flexibility compared to standard boards, but they also significantly impact manufacturing costs and reliability.
