What to Look for When Selecting a Medical Device Contract Manufacturer

Written on . Posted in Articles of Interest, Blog, Manufacture.

The medical device industry is rapidly evolving, with innovations in technology driving the development of advanced healthcare solutions. To stay competitive, medical device companies often rely on contract manufacturers to bring their products to market quickly, efficiently, and cost-effectively. For instance, partnering with an experienced medical device contract manufacturer can give designers an advantage on pre-production design work that moves seamlessly into a finished PCBA. However,...

The Use of PCB Ground Planes in PCB Design

Written on . Posted in Articles of Interest, Blog, Manufacture.

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are the backbone of electronic devices, providing a platform for interconnecting various components and ensuring the smooth flow of signals. One essential element in PCB design is the ground plane. Ground planes play a critical role in maintaining signal integrity, reducing electromagnetic interference (EMI), and enhancing the overall performance and reliability of electronic circuits. Let’s learn more about the significance of PCB ground planes and how they contribute...

The Benefits of PCB Third-party Contract Manufacturing

Written on . Posted in Articles of Interest, Blog, Manufacture.

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are essential components in nearly all electronics, including smartphones, laptops, medical devices, LEDs, manufacturing equipment, and automotive parts. Every day, we use PCBs without knowing it. If the PCB doesn’t work, the product doesn’t work, and the consumer ends up frustrated. This is why it’s imperative for PCBs to function properly. Some companies try to build their own PCBs, but unless they specialize in PCB design and fabrication, it usually ends up...

PCB Design Considerations for High Speed Digital Circuits

Written on . Posted in Articles of Interest, Blog, Manufacture.

Advanced thought is required to build high-speed circuitry. Without a proactive approach, it will be extremely difficult to get the speeds you’re looking for. High-speed PCB design focuses on creating circuit boards that are less vulnerable to signal integrity, power integrity, and EMI/EMC problems. While no design is ever completely free of these issues, there are things PCB designers do to reduce them to an unnoticeable degree. This way, they won’t cause problems in the final product. Below...

Top 5 Things to Know when Designing a PCB

Written on . Posted in Articles of Interest, Blog, Manufacture.

Building a printed circuit board (PCB) is a complicated task. These boards have a lot of associations between layers, components, and circuitry and they must all be properly handled. Otherwise, the PCB may not function correctly. Fortunately, there are simple practices that PCB designers follow to make the process more accurate, manageable, and efficient. Below are the top five considerations that PCB manufacturers keep in mind when designing a printed circuit board. 1. Component Placement The...
