San Francisco Circuits (SFC), a leader in PCB (printed circuit board) manufacturing, assembly, and testing services tailored for unmanned systems and robotic technologies, has published a complete guide on how designers can effectively address mechanical and thermal specifications for PCBs without incurring excessive costs.
Explore the complete guide on the San Francisco Circuits website.
Imposing overly stringent requirements on a PCB can lead to inflated expenses, while a lack of adequate physical specifications may result in a PCB that fails to perform as needed in real-world applications. the objective is to strike a harmonious balance between accuracy and affordability.
This guide delves into:
- Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing, particularly for mounting holes
- Creating a well-balanced layer stack-up
- Two strategies for achieving uniform metal distribution
- Incorporating stiffener bars to enhance stability
- The benefits of utilizing metal core PCBs
The strategies discussed in this guide will assist designers in ensuring compliance, maintaining a flat board, and improving the assembly of surface mount components. For further insights, visit the full guide on the San Francisco Circuits website.
