PCB types
Project review can cover rigid PCB, flexible PCB, rigid-flex PCB and aluminum PCB structures depending on product application and assembly needs.
PCB Capabilities
PCB manufacturing capability matrix.
Use this capability matrix to prepare PCB manufacturing inquiries for single sided PCB, double sided PCB, multilayer PCB, HDI PCB, flexible PCB, rigid-flex PCB and aluminum PCB projects.
PCB Manufacturing Capability Matrix
Capability table for engineering review.
Each project is reviewed against Gerber data, layer stack, material needs, copper requirements, inspection route and final application.
| Category | Capability | Engineering review note |
|---|---|---|
| PCB types | Single sided PCB, double sided PCB, multilayer PCB, HDI PCB, flexible PCB, rigid-flex PCB, aluminum PCB | Confirm application, assembly method, bend areas, thermal path and mechanical constraints. |
| Layer | 1-32 layers | Stackup, via type, board thickness and impedance requirements should be reviewed before production. |
| Materials | FR4, High TG materials, aluminum PCB materials, flexible materials | Material selection should match temperature, reliability, compliance and mechanical needs. |
| Surface finish | HASL, Lead Free HASL, ENIG, OSP | Finish selection depends on pad flatness, assembly method, storage and application requirements. |
| Inspection | AOI, electrical testing, visual inspection | Inspection planning depends on board type, batch stage and customer documentation needs. |
Technical capability
Layer count, material, board thickness, copper thickness, via structure, surface finish and test method are checked with the production data.
Inspection planning
AOI, electrical testing and visual inspection support production verification. Additional documentation can be discussed during inquiry.
