Alleviate price increases with your PCB designs
There are many articles that have explained the reasoning for the increased pricing, including this one here [Prices of Copper-Clad Laminates Continue to Rise (iconnect007.com)]. We are going to focus on how you can respond, but understanding some of the driving factors to increased price and lead time. One of the biggest impacts to a […]
Applications of PCBs – use field engineering experts on your design
Have your PCB supplier involved early in the design phase First, let’s discuss a resource like this. At NCAB Group, they are field application engineers (FAEs). The benefit here is an experienced field application engineer will have worked on many PCBs for a variety of applications and have the capability and knowledge to recommend […]

COMMON DESIGN PROBLEMS REGARDING HDI PRODUCTION PROBLEMS DEPENDING ON THIS BEST SOLUTION Too tight demands on the thickness of overplating of plugged vias. (POFV or VIPPO) Affects the flow of the process, at a reasonable thickness of the overplating all the vias can be drilled in the same operation, which makes the process much […]
PCB design tips: Via-in-pad
The benefits of via-in-pad designs are well documented. From reduction of inductance to increased density, via-in-pad has become an essential tool for designers when navigating the routing challenges of fine pitch array packages that have become mainstays in today’s BOMs but there are trade-offs that must be considered. The basic concept is elegant. The via-in-pad […]
