Download or read book The Printed Circuit Designer s Guide To Documentation written by DownStream Technologies and published by . This book was released on 2019-08-15 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the PCB layout is finished, the designer is still not quite done. The designer's intent must still be communicated to the fabricator through accurate PCB documentation.Documentation can be an error-prone task-one that may take up to 20% of the total PCB design cycle time. Many designers still utilize documentation strategies that date to the '80s and '90s.This book, written by Mark Gallant of DownStream Technologies, explains how the automated documentation solutions of today can eliminate post-processing errors and speed up time to market.This book is a must-read for any PCB designers or design engineers who would like to adopt 21st-century PCB documentation processes.

Download or read book A Practical Guide to RF and Mixed Technology Printed Circuit Board Layout written by Scott Nance and published by . This book was released on 2017-09-07 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful design of modern, complex mixed-technology printed circuit boards is an ever-evolving task. As technologies change, techniques employed by designers must evolve accordingly. The aim of this guideline is to ensure that designs are done as correctly as possible on the first attempt. Doing so has been repeatedly found to yield good results from simulations and testing, with minimal design modification required. Regardless of the mathematics and simulations that may be employed, strict adherence to best practices is most likely to make the board "just work".While much of this information is available from various sources, it is rarely consolidated into a single comprehensive guideline focused on actionable advice, as opposed to theory and mathematic formulas. Although some background theory is presented for certain topics, said theory is deliberately presented with minimal complex mathematics and theory when applicable. It's our hope that readers find the information both useful and easy to comprehend.
Download or read book PCB Design Guide to Via and Trace Currents and Temperatures written by Douglas Brooks and published by Artech House. This book was released on 2021-02-28 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A very important part of printed circuit board (PCB) design involves sizing traces and vias to carry the required current. This exciting new book will explore how hot traces and vias should be and what board, circuit, design, and environmental parameters are the most important. PCB materials (copper and dielectrics) and the role they play in the heating and cooling of traces are covered. The IPC curves found in IPC 2152, the equations that fit those curves and computer simulations that fit those curves and equations are detailed. Sensitivity analyses that show what happens when environments are varied, including adjacent traces and planes, changing trace lengths, and thermal gradients are presented. Via temperatures and what determines them are explored, along with fusing issues and what happens when traces are overloaded. Voltage drops across traces and vias, the thermal effects going around right-angle corners, and frequency effects are covered. Readers learn how to measure the thermal conductivity of dielectrics and how to measure the resistivity of copper traces and why many prior attempts to do so have been doomed to failure. Industrial CT Scanning, and whether or not they might replace microsections for measuring trace parameters are also considered.
