What is PCB?

-A PCB is a printed circuit board, also known as a printed wiring board. -It is used in electronics to build
electronic devices

A PCB serves two purposes in the construction of an electronic device; it is a place to mount the
components and it provides the means of electrical connection between the components. What is an
example of PCB you might see everyday? - Computers, tablets, smartphones, and various other devices
that people use every day need PCBs with SMT technology to function. As more electronics become part
of everyone's daily lives, PCBs are there to ensure they operate correctly.

Why is PCB important in Electronics? -The Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is very important in all electronic
gadgets, which are used either for domestic use or for industrial purposes. PCB design services are used
to design the electronic circuits. Apart from electrically connecting, it also gives mechanical support to
the electrical components

Rules Of PCB Layout

1. According to the circuit module layout, the relevant circuit for realizing the same function is
called one module, and the components in the circuit module should adopt the principle of near
concentration, the digital circuit and the analog circuit are separated at the same time.
2. 2. Do not mount the electronic components within 1.27mm around the non-mounting
holes,such as tooling hole and standard holes. Do not mount components within 3.5mm (for
M2.5) and 4mm (for M3) around the mounting holes such as screws;
3. 3.Avoid placing holes under the components such as the horizontally mounted resistors,
inductors (insers), electrolytic capacitors, etc., so as to avoid shortcircuiting the vias and
component housings after wave soldering;
4. 4.The distance between the outer side of the component and the edge of the pcb board is 5mm;
5. The outer side of the mounting component pad and the outer side of the adjacent interposing
component are greater than 2 mm
6. Metal shell components and metal parts (shield boxes, etc.) can not touch other components,
can not be close to the printed lines, pads, the spacing should be greater than 2mm. Positioning
holes, fastener mounting holes, oval holes And the other side of the square hole outside the
plate is larger than 3mm.
7. 7.Heating componentscannot be in close proximity to the wire and the heating-sensitive
components; the high-heating components should be evenly distributed;
8. 8.The power socket should be placed around the printed circuit board as much as possible. The
power socket and the bus bar terminal connected to it should be placed on the same side.
Special care should be taken not to place the power socket and other solder connectors between
the connectors to facilitate the connection. These sockets, connector soldering and power cable
design and cable tie. The spacing between the power socket and the solder connector should be
considered to facilitate the plugging and unplugging of the power plug
9. 9. All IC components are unilaterally aligned, and the polarity of the polar components is clearly
marked. The polarity on the same printed board shall not be more than two directions. When
two directions are present, the two directions are perpendicular to each other
10. 10. the board surface wiring should be properly dense, when the difference between the density
is too large, it should be filled with mesh copper foil, the grid is larger than 8mil (or 0.2mm)
11. 11. There should be no through holes on the chip pads,avoid the solder joints from being lost
due to solder paste loss. Important signal lines are not allowed to pass through the socket pins
12. the patch is unilaterally aligned, the characters are in the same direction, and the package
direction is consistent
13. Polarized componentsshould be as consistent as possible in the direction marked by the polarity
on the same board
14.
