PCB design for extreme environments - challenges with thermal management, altitude and shock and vibration events.

PCBs for Harsh and Extreme Environments: What defines an extreme environment?
PCBs used in harsh and extreme environments will be exposed to extreme situations. Learn about what defines extreme environments and about the PCBs used.

PCB design for railway applications: regulations and considerations
When designing PCBs for an application to the railway sector, there is a set of regulations and considerations that should be considered.

The Evolving Landscape of Medical PCBs
Important things to know when constructing a medical PCB! In this guide, we'll cover how to design medical PCBs, the latest medical PCB trends etc.

Increasing quality risks in the PCB supply chain - and how we work to mitigate them
As we considered the changing market conditions with factories being potentially overstocked, following declining capacity demand and facing shelf life issues - we saw a risk that substitutions for equivalent materials might be made by the factories.

Data Matrix and QR Codes for PCB Information and Traceability
Data Matrix codes offers high data density in a very small size, making them an ideal solution for marking PCBs where space might be limited.

How an efficient engineering process can impact your PCB’s total cost and reliability
An efficient engineering process is key for your PCB´s total cost and reliability. Learn how we work to clarify any uncertainties from the very start.

PCBs for the defense industry
We have talked to some of our NCAB experts regarding what to think about when producing reliable PCBs for the defense industry.

Ultra HDI PCBs put high demands on technology and manufacturing
Ultra HDI printed circuit boards are extremely dense boards with conductor width and isolation distance and dielectric thickness of less than 50 µm. Read more here.

PCBs for the Railway Industry - what you need to consider and know
When producing PCBs to the Railway Industry, there are certain requirements that need to be considered, fire and testing are key words to this. Learn more about it!

Buying PCBs with support from a local team – does it make a difference?
NCAB local customer teams support you when buying PCBs, and are also a link between you and you and our partner factories.

PCB designs with high-power applications – demands and considerations
High-power applications are those that require a lot of power to operate. This is usually because they are used in devices that need to be able to run for a long time without being plugged in.
Eigen productspecificatie resulteert in betrouwbare printplaten
De printplaatspecificatie van NCAB is een uitgebreid document met een lijst van meer dan 100 verschillende eisen of criteria, waaraan de productie van printplaten voor onze klanten volledig moet voldoen.

New energy vehicles vs. traditional – what is the difference in relation to PCBs?
The automotive industry is undergoing a revolutionary change. The electronic part in the new energy vehicle is more involved and advanced, and with this in mind, the demands on the PCBs will increase in various ways.

PCB Etchback Processes
PCB etchback is a process applied within to maintain optimized routing signals between multiple layers within printed circuit boards.
Europese productieketen levert topkwaliteit met korte levertijden

Learn all about what to think about to get the optimum out of a PCB factory.

Via Hole Design – a cautionary tale
Imagine you are a start-up company. You spent a year designing a product from start to finish. You have built the prototypes; there were some snags along the way but ultimately, the end product is perfect. You’re finally ready for volume production. Once you use multiple suppliers pricing out your bare board, you discover there’s […]
