Printed Circuit Board Assembly
Printed Circuit Board Assembly Also referred to as a PCA, the Printed Circuit Board Assembly follows on from Printed Circuit Board Manufacture. This is where the components are placed onto the PCB or Printed Circuit Board and the electrical connections formed. In this post I will focus on volume manufacturing techniques. We also make…

Printed Circuit Board Manufacture
Printed Circuit Boards In our series on Electronics Design we have looked at the Electronics Design Process from Requirements Capture, Technology Selection, Component Selection, Schematic Capture and finally PCB Design of the Printed Circuit Board including PCB Layout. Now we have a design and the Electronics CAD files to make a Prototype. There are a number…

Electronics Design: PCB Layout
PCB Layout After the Schematic Capture component of the Electronics Design is complete, the logical connections for the electronics components have been determined. If the Electronics CAD package also supports it, you can add rules to guide the Printed Circuit Board Layout, also abbreviated to PCB Layout which we will use from here on. …

Electronics Design: Schematic Capture
Schematic Capture Schematic Capture is the process of defining the logic connections between different components in an Electronic Circuit. At the end of the process you have a diagram or Schematic of the circuit. That’s a complicated way of saying that it shows the connections between the selected components. We use Altium Designer as our…
