Printed Circuit Boards PDF
dramatically sophisticated especially in the last decade. This has in turn created new design requirements for mounting them on the boards. While insertion was common with DIP (dual inline-package) technology in the 1970s, surface mount technology in now being increasingly employed.
holes is increasing; and hole diameters are rapidly decreasing. These requirements have lead to a rising trend in the implementation of microvias as blind-vias or through-holes. In the future, PCBs
will have higher functionality/density, improved reliability and lower cost through better and more tightly controlled/cost-effective processing. The industry will also move towards more environmental
friendly PCBs. Furthermore, the advantages in contract manufacturing at the global level will effectively ensure that the design and manufacture of PCBs are of internationally accepted quality.
Most of the books currently available on this subject, do not address several of the above mentioned (important) aspects. This book is a single-source reference covering these vital areas of PCB
technology. This includes design, fabrication, assembly and testing, including their reliability and quality aspects. The book therefore, addresses not only the design considerations but also provides a general understanding on all the processes needed in the physical construction and testing of the printed circuit boards. Despite the several highly specialized disciplines in this field, such as,
electronics, mechanical engineering, fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, chemistry, physics, metallurgy and optics, the attempt in this book has been to keep the text lucid and to explain the salient aspects of PCBs without indulging in an exhaustive theoretical approach. Extensive bibliographical references are provided to represent such specialized extensions of the subject which lie outside the domain of this book.
