Preventing plating and soldering voids is about testing new manufacturing processes and analyzing the results. Plating and soldering voids usually have an identifiable cause, such as the type of ...

Here’s a PCB fabrication process that makes us envious. It’s pretty darn close to fab-house quality at home. [Cpirius] is using a CNC mill and through hole plating technique to produce his ...

Eurocircuits, a European producer of small batch PCBs, has teamed up with Elsyca, a Belgian research company specialising in advanced electrochemical modelling, to implement PCB plating using Elsyca’s ...

Today’s electronic packages have high clock speeds (multi-gigahertz range), fine pin densities (below 0.4-mm pitch), and high pin counts (over 2000). When assembled onto a printed-circuit board (PCB), ...

For the few double-sided PCBs we’ve actually etched at home we simply soldered a piece of wire to either side of a via and clipped off the excess. But if you want to go the extra mile you can’t beat ...
