How Do You Select a Printed Circuit Board Thickness? Selecting the correct PC Board [1] thickness for your product requires balancing of three often competing aspects of the design: manufacturability, electrical performance and mechanical constraints. Modern PCB fabrication techniques at PNC give the PCB designer great flexibility in specifying the PCB lamination stack-up and gives them the option to design a PCB in a thickness other than the typical choices of .031”, 062” or .093”. Manufacturing considerations in selecting a PCB thickness To understand how to specify PCB thickness, it is important to understand how PCBs are fabricated. Most multilayer PCBS from 2 ...
There are many detailed factors involved when pursuing the right company for your electronic or PCB assembly [1] needs. These factors can be broken down into two distinct areas, customer communication and supplier contract review. Either the customer or the supplier cannot afford time lost if there is a misunderstanding or lack of data to efficiently and effectively produce a quality product on time. Time spent up front makes for a smooth and efficient transition through the quoting and manufacturing process. Customer communication A majority of communications for a request for quote, RFQ’s, in today’s industry are via email. The email needs ...
