What is PCB Manufacturing? PCB manufacturing is the process of fabricating printed circuit boards (PCBs) that electrically connect and mechanically support electronic components using conductive pathways, tracks, or signal traces etched from copper sheets laminated onto a non-conductive substrate. It is a complex multi-step process that starts with PCB design […]
Understanding Soldering PCB Defects Before diving into the methods of checking for defects, let’s first understand what soldering PCB defects are. Soldering PCB defects refer to any imperfections or anomalies that occur during the soldering process, resulting in suboptimal or faulty connections between components and the PCB. Common Types of […]
