Durability of Pin Plating Materials for PCB Connectors

Pin headers are one of the common components in PCBs, but they have a specifications that is not always considered: the plating material. The material you see in PCB pin headers, connectors, pogo pins, and through-hole posts is just a plating, and it is deposited over a base metal that provides the main structural properties. While it might seem like a minor detail, pin plating is a big determinant of reliability in pin connections, just as it is

What Is a Solder Bridge Jumper? Best Practices in PCB Design A PCB variant is often simply thought of as a new layout created from an old design. However, if you’re creative with your routing and layout, you can use a solder bridge jumper to configure portions of a single PCB layout for multiple variants. This lets you quickly create variants of a PCB layout without rerouting traces or changing your schematics. If you plan to use jumpers in your PCB layout, there are some important guidelines to follow to Read Article

Eliminate the Crosstalk: LVDS Routing and the Art of Differential Signaling

LVDS Routing and the Art of Differential Signaling One of the early differential signaling protocols used for serial communication was low-voltage differential signaling, or LVDS. Throughout the development of standardized protocols and interfaces, there have been many standards that have come and gone. LVDS started as an excellent general purpose high-speed digital communication standard, and it still sees such use to this day. As a differential communication standard, it brings some signal Read Article
