  2. Printed circuit board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printed_circuit_board

    A printed circuit board (PCB), also called printed wiring board (PWB), is a laminated sandwich structure of conductive and insulating layers, each with a pattern of traces, planes and other features (similar to wires on a flat surface) etched from one or more sheet layers of copper laminated onto or between sheet layers of a non-conductive ...

  3. Printed circuit board manufacturing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printed_circuit_board...

    A PCB milling machine (referred to as a 'PCB Prototyper') operates in a similar way to a plotter, receiving commands from the host software that control the position of the milling head in the x, y, and (if relevant) z axis. Laser resist ablation involves spraying black paint onto copper clad laminate, then placing the board into CNC laser ...

  4. Eurocard (printed circuit board) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurocard_(printed_circuit...

    Eurocard is an IEEE standard format for printed circuit board (PCB) cards that can be plugged together into a standard chassis which, in turn, can be mounted in a 19-inch rack. The chassis consists of a series of slotted card guides on the top and bottom, into which the cards are slid so they stand on end, like books on a shelf.

  5. Motherboard - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motherboard

    Dell Precision T3600 System Motherboard, used in professional CAD Workstations. Manufactured in 2012. A motherboard (also called mainboard, main circuit board, MB, mobo, base board, system board, or, in Apple computers, logic board) is the main printed circuit board (PCB) in general-purpose computers and other expandable systems.

  6. Intermediate Data Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermediate_Data_Format

    The EMN File contains the PCB outline, the position of the parts, positions of holes and milling, keep out regions and keep in regions. The EMP file contains the outline and height of the parts. Some CAD software allows the use of a map file to load more detailed part models.

  7. Circuit diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_diagram

    Once the schematic has been made, it is converted into a layout that can be fabricated onto a printed circuit board (PCB). Schematic-driven layout starts with the process of schematic capture . The result is what is known as a rat's nest .

  8. Via (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Via_(electronics)

    A via (Latin, 'path' or 'way') is an electrical connection between two or more metal layers of a printed circuit boards (PCB) or integrated circuit. Essentially a via is a small drilled hole that goes through two or more adjacent layers; the hole is plated with metal (often copper) that forms an electrical connection through the insulating layers.

  9. Power electronic substrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_electronic_substrate

    The role of the substrate in power electronics is to provide the interconnections to form an electric circuit (like a printed circuit board), and to cool the components.. Compared to materials and techniques used in lower power microelectronics, these substrates must carry higher currents and provide a higher voltage isolation (up to several thousand vo
