Manufacturing HDI PCBs requires a variety of materials. They are necessary to create a layer stackup, etch the unwanted copper, apply a solder mask, apply a surface finish, and print the [...]
Eminent PCB manufacturers like Rush PCB Inc. know that a board’s stack up directly affects its cost. Additionally, there are fabrication variables that also contribute to the cost of a board. [...]
PCB or Printed Circuit Board designers, targeting high-volume production, are familiar with fiducials. These are copper features, visible through the solder mask openings, typically appearing [...]
For any type of PCB or Printed Circuit Board, its substrate or the material the board is made of, forms its backbone for holding the traces and the components. NEMA or National Electrical [...]
Although rigid PCBs or printed circuit boards are still the norm in most electronic equipment, flexible PCBs are swiftly making serious inroads in the industry. This is mostly because flexible or [...]
The PCB industry cannot do without CAD or computer-aided design and CAM or computer-aided manufacturing. These are necessary for the quality and accuracy that customers demand from the industry. [...]
At Rush PCB Inc., we make all types of PCBs, including those with castellated holes. In this article, we will overview castellated holes, their history, applications, benefits, design attributes, [...]
At Rush PCB Inc., we are always under pressure to help our customers bring their new products faster to market. Rapid prototyping allows designers and engineers to test their concepts faster, [...]
With technology continuously getting smaller, there can be no reason to assume that the trend will stop any time soon. Therefore, designers are under constant pressure to reduce their board size. [...]
When developing a functional embedded system, designers use a variety of electronic components. These include processors, memories, and peripheral devices. The complexity of the system depends on [...]
