They call these embedded components... I've heard of them and read about them, but I haven't seen any yet. Here is a short article about embedded components in a PCB: http://tinyurl.com/2j6bd8

Yes, embedded components. They can build decoupling capacitors and terminating resistors into layers of the PC board, and print them very much like copper layers. Jon

Hi Fluxgate, Doubt it's the laminate unless you have embedded components. Nickel is ferromagnetic (can be magnetised),so I would expect some level of magnetism in ENIG, but not silver. Are you 100% sure it was immersion silver and not something

I think Equipment wise things have changed little. Xray and Endo scopes have seen usefulness with in industry and if you want to add Laser soldering...Well that is some of the new Capital Equipment. Some areas that will grow over the course of some

All: IPC does not directly state any criteria for physical characteristics of what a filled via should look like when embedded within a surface mount component's pad. I am using several of these in my design, and have received PCBs that exhibi

The best method of cleaning misprinted boards is with a stencil cleaner. I would not recommend the use of a spray-in-air system for misprints. Spray systems can cause solder paste to become embedded into vias and under components (if double sided).

Dear all, I am one of the founders of a small company doing electronics design + embedded software. Currently our prototypes are using increasingly complex smd components. When we started we mostly used atmel cpus, but now we are starting to use fpg

Good day, You are right. PanaPro system isn�t very easy to use; it�s rather complex system, but very flexible and very powerful. It has a powerful core together with a lot of useful software functions. For example build-in text post-processor, good

The size of the pad changes among the two. A solder mask defined pad will always be larger than a copper defined by your mask expansion setting. This will affect paste volume, if your standard paste aperture is designed for copper defined pads you m
