Optimizing PCB Trace Thickness vs. Current Capacity

The relationship between PCB trace thickness and current capacity is a critical aspect of PCB design. Properly sizing traces ensures that they can handle the required current without overheating, which is essential for the reliability and functionality of the circuit. This article explores the key considerations for selecting trace thickness, the impact of copper weight, and...

PCB Routing: Best Practices for Ensuring Signal Integrity and Performance

Printed Circuit Board (PCB) routing is a critical aspect of electronic design, ensuring that electrical signals are transmitted efficiently and reliably between components. Proper routing minimizes interference, maintains signal integrity, and meets design requirements such as impedance control and thermal management. This article outlines the best practices for PCB routing, focusing on optimizing performance and ensuring signal integrity....

PCB Thermal Design Guide: Tips For PCB Analysis and Performance

Electronics are becoming faster, smaller, and used in more demanding environments. Miniaturized ICs and SMDs operate at higher frequencies and require more power. Increased current demands cause voltage drops across resistive elements, generating heat and leading to temperature rises and hotspots. Over half of electronic component failures now stem from heat-related stress. To develop high-quality circuit...

PCB Resistors and Board Design

PCB resistors are designed to be mounted and soldered to printed circuit boards; they control current flow and divide voltages, among other things.  PCB resistors come in many shapes and sizes, but they’re all designed to fit easily into board layouts. They have two terminals that can be soldered to the conductive traces on the PCB so they...
