Printed Circuit Boards- The Building Blocks of Electronic Devices

Even though they are a very small component, without printed circuit boards, we would not have the amazing electronic s that surrounds us. Printed circuit boards are basically of two types, rigid printed circuit boards and flexible printed circuit boards. Flex printed circuit boards are a very common sight if we really give the internal parts of our electronics a good second look. The green background with silver traces present under the outer covering of your favorite electronic is nothing but a printed circuit board. A printed circuit board is nothing but a small mechanical device that is responsible for holding your device in place. They mostly consist of a copper layer present between two layers of non-conductive material. Once completely built, the printed circuit board is subjected to the process of etching which leads to the formation of traces on the circuit board. Printed circuit board manufacturers have developed new software called as process management ...
