What Information does the PCB Prototype Need to Give the Manufacturer

Recently, many customers asked the PCB Prototype what information to provide, and today I will give you a comprehensive answer.
PCB Prototype is an early step in mass production. Only when proofing is accurate, can it be put into mass production. Therefore, it is especially important to provide accurate proofing files. So, do you know what documents you need to provide? And what issues should I pay attention to in the documentation provided?

First, you need to provide a PCB or GERBER file, the document should include the plate-making instructions - including the specific number of board layers, materials, pad process, ink color, etc., here are some specific parameters to explain.
Material: To explain what kind of PCB material is needed, the most common one is FR4. The main material is epoxy resin stripping fiber board.
Slab: Describe the number of layers in the PCB. (The PCB production layer is different, the price will be different, and the PCB Prototype process is much the same)
Solder mask color: There are many colors, and can also be selected according to requirements, generally green.
Silk screen color: The color of the silkscreen font and border on the PCB is generally white.
Copper thickness: Generally, the thickness of copper is scientifically calculated according to the current of the PCB circuit. Generally, the thicker the better, but the cost will be higher, so a reasonable balance is needed.
Whether the via hole covers the solder mask: Over-resistance soldering is to insulate the via hole, otherwise the via hole is not insulated.
Surface coating: tinned and gold plated.
Quantity: The number of PCBs to be produced should be clearly stated.
The above points are summarized and I hope to help everyone's PCB Prototype.

PCB Design, Manufacturing & Assembling

In this article, you'll get to know the fundamentals of PCB manufacturers and how our company "PCBSKY" is unique from other manufacturers in China. What are the three main aspects of the PCB industry?   According to our experience of more than 10 years as the leading PCB Company in the industry, we can easily write that three main aspects in the PCB industry for which most clients look for are: PCB Design PCB Manufacturing  PCB Assembly Design, Manufacturing, and assembling of PCB is a systematic method for examining the parts and components which is needed to execute. It included obtaining costs of a commodity and seeks to cut costs before actual development begins. There are specific manufacturing, design, and assembling principles required to be following during the PCB process execution of any electrical or electronics part. Eventually, a final design concludes the series with a review among the most common issues related to the PC Board or Printed Circuit Board.

What is the POFV process of PCB? Why use POFV technology?

Image
The process flow of POFV has become more and more widely used in the PCB industry in recent years, especially in some products with high layers and large board thickness, which is very popular. People hope to use resin plug holes to solve a series of problems that cannot be solved by using green oil plug holes or pressure-filled resin. However, due to the characteristics of the resin itself used in this process, many difficulties need to be overcome in manufacturing to achieve good quality resin plug products. With the continuous updating of electronic product technology, the structure and installation method of electronic chips are constantly improving and changing. Its development is basically from components with plug-in feet to highly dense integrated circuit modules using ball matrix arrangement of solder joints. You can see the development history of parts from the following figure: In the PCB industry, many process methods have been widely used in the industry, and peop
