The whole PCB manufacturing process takes a complex path to ensure the performance of the final product. While there are various types of circuit boards, such as single, double, and multilayered PCBs, their manufacturing process only differs after the fabrication of the first layer. Because of the differences in circuit board designs, some PCBs have more than 18 manufacturing steps.Step 1: Designing the PCBThe initial step of the PCB manufacturing process is the design or plan of the task ahead. Here, the designer outlays a sketch for the circuit board that meets the application requirements. The manufacturer then checks the…
