Skills related to PCB design

When it comes to PCB design and manufacturing, here are some helpful tips that can help you achieve better results during the design and manufacturing process:

Reasonable component layout: Arrange components according to their functions and connection relationships to reduce signal transmission distance and reduce interference.

Ground plane planning: Design a reasonable ground plane to separate signal layers, provide current loops, and reduce electromagnetic interference.

Layering strategy: Use a multilayer PCB to arrange signals and power between different layers to improve wiring efficiency and performance.

Differential pair wiring: For high-speed signals, use differential pair wiring to improve the anti-interference ability of the signal.

Component Selection: Select the appropriate component considering performance, size, cost and availability.

Pin planning: Pay attention to the arrangement of component pins for better connection and routing.

Signal integrity: Consider the transmission characteristics of the signal, and use appropriate resistors and capacitors to deal with signal integrity issues.

Thermal management: For high-power components, consider heat dissipation to ensure that the board does not overheat.

Package Library Management: A well-organized component package library ensures that the correct package is selected and used.
