5 bemerkenswerte Frauen im PCB-Design 5 bemerkenswerte Frauen im PCB-Design „Women in Technology“ ist ein wichtiges und hochaktuelles Thema, insbesondere die Frage, wie man mehr Frauen für technologiebezogene Bereiche gewinnen kann. Was mich an diesem Thema am meisten interessiert, ist die Frage, was Menschen generell dazu bewegt, eine Karriere in der Technologiebranche anzustreben. Es gibt viele Männer, die sich für diesen Weg entscheiden. Als Frau, die selbst in der Branche tätig ist, finde ich es immer positiv, neue Artikel lesen

Everything You Need to Know About Ferrite Beads Everything You Need to Know About Ferrite Beads As noted in my previous blog regarding PDS design, the whole power supply conundrum is one that has been plagued over the years with a number of erroneous rules-of-thumb; “black magic” design rules and confusion as to what does or doesn’t work. One of the most controversial topic areas focuses on the use of ferrite beads as a means of controlling and containing EMI. There is conflicting information concerning the use of ferrite beads and it is Artikel lesen
The Art of Selecting Connectors The Art of Selecting Connectors Connectors are the unsung stars of both a product and its hardware development. Any Apple user knows the romantic tale the company has spun from infatuation with the first magnetic power connector through the betrayal of the 3.5mm jack to today’s ‘it’s complicated’ status thanks to the baggage their dongles create in pursuit of beauty. Product developers have similar emotional experiences with their prototypes. An unreliable connector that has Artikel lesen
How To Design the Perfect PCB Stack Up With Altium Designer How To Design the Perfect PCB Stack Up With Altium Designer In the last 20+ years, electronics have become increasingly more complex. Board density is always being pushed to the limits, EMC/EMI regulations evolved and got stricter, and edge rates have become smaller. Therefore, the PCB Layout engineer needs a good understanding of EMC, PDN, EMI, and SI in order to route a modern PCB with confidence. In this article we’ll talk about some of the considerations we should have in order to create a PCB stackup Artikel lesen
Multi-Board Design Basics Webinar - August 2018 The webinar touches on electrical and mechanical challenges of system and product level multi-board PCB design. A demonstration follows, showing how to mitigate the challenges of the PCB design process with the capabilities of Altium Designer. You need to manage the whole system connections, resolve conflicts, and update system-child projects. Coordinating separate board rotation, alignment, and enclosure fit is like a game of three-dimensional PDF herunterladen
Creating a Ground Plane for Your PCB Design Creating a Ground Plane for Your PCB Design It used to be that printed circuit boards seemed to have the same basic layer configuration, or at least that’s the way I tend to remember it. This meant that they were usually six layer multi-layer boards, with a ground plane and a VCC plane. The old CAD systems didn’t really have the ability to do much with power planes except to designate layers as a bottom layer or the like. The most you would see in them would be some “X’s” where there was Artikel lesen
Einheiten von mm auf mil umstellen und andere Einstellungen für Maßeinheiten beim PCB-Design Einheiten von mm auf mil umstellen und andere Einstellungen für Maßeinheiten beim PCB-Design Es gab eine Zeit, da hing die Maßeinheit, die ein PCB-Designer benutzte, davon ab, auf welcher Seite der Welt er sich gerade befand. Das hat sich mit der Zeit geändert, und das metrische System wurde zum Standard bei Maßeinheiten. Das Problem war jedoch, dass viele alte Datenblätter und Designs weiterhin angloamerikanische Maßeinheiten enthielten. Designer mussten sich mit einem Notizblock, einem Taschenrechner und einer Packung Aspirin bewaffnen Artikel lesen
pcb cost estimate Designing to Meet a Target BOM Price and PCB Cost Estimate Creating an accurate PCB cost estimate for design, components, production, assembly, shipping, and even firmware can be challenging tasks for new designers. Even established organizations can have trouble getting it right as it's hard to anticipate every problem that can arise during a design. Manufacturers can help you handle the production and assembly portion of a project, but any time a new design needs to be put into production, components Artikel lesen

Manufacturing Checklists and Tools When it comes to manufacturing, organization is critical. With so many different players involved in the design process (engineers, sourcing agents, manufacturers, etc.), maintaining documentation and utilizing checklists and other tools will keep everyone on the same page and avoid confusion. Additionally, checklists can help ensure that the PCB design is fully complete and ready to send for manufacturing, protecting you from any unexpected PDF herunterladen
Generate Gerber Files in Altium Designer Step-by-Step from Schematic to PCB How to Generate Gerber Files in Altium Designer Step-by-Step Once you've got your PCB layout finished and you're ready to start preparing for manufacturing, one of the critical steps is to generate Gerber files. These files are used by PCB manufacturers to prepare stencils for photoresist exposure and subsequent etching. When you're ready to create your Gerber files, you need the right set of CAM tools that can take data from your PCB layout. Altium Designer helps make the process for generating Gerber Artikel lesen
Preventing Ground Loops in Your PCB Design Preventing Ground Loops in Your PCB Design I think we’ve all been there. You buy that awesome stereo system only to hear that familiar humming sound in the background. When you take it back to the store the clerk blames the manufacturer. What components are to be considered a problem? The decoupling capacitor or ground wire? How about the bypass capacitor or ground loop interference? The stereo manufacturer will blame the component manufacturer and the component manufacturer can’t blame Artikel lesen
Understanding Ground Planes in Your Two-Layer PCB Understanding Ground Planes in Your Two-Layer PCB Back when I was a young and hungry grad student, my first PCB ground plane design was used to collect analog signals from several sensors. When looking at a voltage graph of my measurements, the noise level was horrible and completely masked the signal I was trying to measure. I soon realized that I had completely bungled my ground plane connections, and ground loops were ruining my signals. Placing your ground plane and routing to ground are two Artikel lesen

Simplify Schematic and PCB Designs by Highlighting Nets Better PCB Routing - Highlight Nets Regardless how many PCBs I design, I always find myself having to regularly review network paths on schematics layer and trace routes on PCBs. The complexity reminds me of a maze where only one path is the right one for a particular network. It is imperative that all the connections are accurate as errors made here will come back to haunt you later in the form of redesigns. The best way to ensure network accuracy is by isolating it so that each Artikel lesen
