  2. Schematic capture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schematic_capture

    Schematic capture or schematic entry is a step in the design cycle of electronic design automation (EDA) at which the electronic diagram, or electronic schematic of the designed electronic circuit, is created by a designer. This is done interactively with the help of a schematic capture tool also known as schematic editor. [1]

  3. Teardrop (electronics) - Wikipedia

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

    For similar reasons, a technique called trace necking reduces (or necks down [7] [8] [9]) the width of a trace that approaches a narrower pad of a surface-mounted device or a through-hole with a diameter that is less than the width of the trace, or when the trace passes through bottlenecks (for example, between the pads of a component).

  4. Point-to-point construction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-to-point_construction

    Even after the introduction of printed circuit boards, it did not require laying out and manufacturing circuit boards. Point-to-point and terminal strip construction continued to be used for some vacuum tube equipment even after the introduction of printed circuit boards. The heat of the tubes can degrade the circuit boards and cause them to ...

  5. DipTrace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DipTrace

    DipTrace is a proprietary software suite for electronic design automation (EDA) used for electronic schematic capture and printed circuit board layouts. DipTrace has four applications: schematic editor, PCB editor with built-in shape-based autorouter and 3D preview, component editor (schematic symbol), and pattern editor (PCB footprint).

  6. 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.

  7. JTAG - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JTAG

    JTAG (named after the Joint Test Action Group which codified it) is an industry standard for verifying designs of and testing printed circuit boards after manufacture.. JTAG implements standards for on-chip instrumentation in electronic design automation (EDA) as a complementary tool to digital simulation. [1]

  8. Automatic test pattern generation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_test_pattern...

    ATPG (acronym for both automatic test pattern generation and automatic test pattern generator) is an electronic design automation method or technology used to find an input (or test) sequence that, when applied to a digital circuit, enables automatic test equipment to distinguish between the correct circuit behavior and the faulty circuit behavior caused by defects.

  9. Decapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decapping

    Decapping (decapsulation) or delidding of an integrated circuit (IC) is the process of removing the protective cover or integrated heat spreader (IHS) of an integrated circuit so that the contained die is revealed for visual inspection of the micro circuitry imprinted on the die.
