Silk to Solder Mask Clearance: The PCB Design Rule You Need to Add Silk to Solder Mask Clearance: The PCB Design Rule You Need to Add I was impressed that, right out of the box, the stock design rule checks (DRCs) in my copy of Altium 20 pretty much covered all the bases on how to make a “standard” printed circuit board (PCB). Altium Designer defaults to “10 mil” rules, which means that the standard spacing and widths of copper tracks is 10 mils. What's more, most of the other spacings also default to 10 mils. This includes track to track, pads to tracks, through-holes to other Read Article

WB Article 1 Wire Bonding: Modern Applications, Technology Trends and Cost Considerations Introduction Wire bonding has long been the dominant method for connecting semiconductor dies to package lead frames and circuit boards, particularly in Chip-on-Board (COB) technology, where the die is directly mounted onto the PCB. Wire bonding for COB became popular in consumer electronics, such as calculators and early digital devices due to its reliability and cost efficiency in mass production. Over time, wire bonding COB evolved to meet the Read Article

ECAD-MCAD Collaboration - Bridging the Communication Gap ECAD-MCAD Collaboration - Bridging the Communication Gap Let’s face it, there are things that we do the same way every day, simply because ‘we have always done them that way’ and we are used to them. Due to schedule pressures and outside demands, there is rarely time to think about how to make these things better, never mind try to actually implement something new. This makes the motivation to invest in exploring different methodologies challenging. Our general tendencies lean more toward continuing to Read Article
