  2. Printed circuit board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printed_circuit_board

    When a PCB has no components installed, it is less ambiguously called a printed wiring board (PWB) or etched wiring board. [18] However, the term "printed wiring board" has fallen into disuse. A PCB populated with electronic components is called a printed circuit assembly (PCA), printed circuit board assembly or PCB assembly (PCBA). In informal ...

  3. Printed circuit board milling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printed_circuit_board_milling

    A milled printed circuit board. Printed circuit board milling (also: isolation milling) is the milling process used for removing areas of copper from a sheet of printed circuit board (PCB) material to recreate the pads, signal traces and structures according to patterns from a digital circuit board plan known as a layout file. [1]

  4. 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.

  5. Chip on board - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chip_on_board

    The PCB of a quartz watch. The clock IC is under the drop of black epoxy. Chip on board (COB) is a method of circuit board manufacturing in which the integrated circuits (e.g. microprocessors) are attached (wired, bonded directly) to a printed circuit board, and covered by a blob of epoxy. [1]

  6. Component placement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Component_placement

    Component placement is an electronics manufacturing process that places electrical components precisely on printed circuit boards (PCBs) to create electrical interconnections between functional components and the interconnecting circuitry in the PCBs (leads-pads). The component leads must be accurately immersed in the solder paste previously ...

  7. Wave soldering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_soldering

    The basic equipment used during the process is a conveyor that moves the PCB through the different zones, a pan of solder used in the soldering process, a pump that produces the actual wave, the sprayer for the flux and the preheating pad. The solder is usually a mixture of metals.

  8. Routing (electronic design automation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Routing_(electronic_design...

    In electronic design, wire routing, commonly called simply routing, is a step in the design of printed circuit boards (PCBs) and integrated circuits (ICs). It builds on a preceding step, called placement, which determines the location of each active element of an IC or component on a PCB.

  9. Roll-to-roll processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roll-to-roll_processing

    A typical industrial roll-to-roll process line. In the field of electronic devices, roll-to-roll processing, also known as web processing, [1] reel-to-reel processing or R2R, [2] is the process of creating electronic devices on a roll of flexible plastic, metal foil, or flexible glass. [3]
