At Rush PCB Inc., we are always under pressure to help our customers bring their new products faster to market. Rapid prototyping allows designers and engineers to test their concepts faster, iterate their boards quicker, and validate their designs more quickly before they start investing in full-scale production. We use several methods, techniques, and strategies to enable rapid PCB prototyping. Advantages of Rapid Prototyping There are several advantages of rapid prototyping. These include: Time-to-Market is Faster — When engineers and designers get their working prototypes faster, they can ..read more

As the technology evolved room size computers transformed into tablets and portable laptops, it’s a bigger picture while on a smaller scale, as electronic components shrank in size throughout time, as a result electronic gadgets are becoming smaller and more portable. During 1980’s through hole components and through hole technology were very popular but with the advancement of technology most of the components transformed into SMD(surface mount devices) but the importance of through hole technology is still there according to the requirement. Surface mount technology (SMT) and through-hole te ..read more

BOM is a detailed document that the designer must provide to the manufacturer with information on the materials and components utilized for a specific PCB design. Let’s understand this by imagining that you need a dress. You go to the designer and tell him you need golden buttons from ABC brand, laces in LMN’s design and color, threads in XYZ brand in certain colors, and fabric (size, color, and manufacturer).For all the choices you made for the essentials of your design if you have their links you share those links in order to be more specific and accurate. You can ultimately help a tailor or ..read more

There are several stages to making your project a reality. Getting a reliable fabrication and assembly supplier like Rush PCB Limited is essential. Still, the basics must also be perfect for making your end product cost-effective and error-free. PCB layout design is the most basic and crucial step in product development. However, there are several ways to get the PCB layout done, the first is the do-it-yourself approach, which takes time and effort, and the second is to outsource the project completely to a contract manufacturer like Rush PCB Limited as a Full Turnkey project. In this blog po ..read more

What are Double-Sided PCBs? The most common type of printed circuit boards (PCBs) used nowadays are double-sided PCBs. Higher technology electronics employ double-sided PCBs rather than single-sided ones since they have two-sided traces with a top and bottom layer. A double-sided PCB can be visualized as two single-sided PCBs stacked on top of one another. When you put it this way, it makes sense, but there are just two layers on each side of a double-sided PCB, which makes them no more sophisticated than single-sided PCBs. Because you can alternate between a top and bottom layer rather than j ..read more

All electronic equipment require a printed circuit board to hold their electronic components in place. This board serves a dual purpose. Apart from providing a mechanical anchoring place for electronic components, the board also provides electrical connections to the components. This allows the components to interact with each other and function to let the electronic equipment perform as intended. Types of Boards OEMs use two typical boards for their equipment. One of the types uses through hole components, while the other uses surface mount components. Rush PCB Ltd makes both types of boards ..read more

Rush PCB Ltd manufactures all types of printed circuit boards. Many circuit boards meant for industrial use typically have sensors mounted on them. Sensors are necessary to detect changes in ambient conditions. Sensors typically produce an electrical response corresponding to the changes in the environment. They transmit these signals to other elements on the circuit board, where the signals undergo processing. Such elements on the circuit board include passive elements like resistors, capacitors, and transformers, and active elements like transistors, diodes, and integrated circuits. PCB Sens ..read more

PCBs made by Rush PCB UK may have many types of holes in them for meeting different requirements. In fact, the PCB manufacturing process includes several processes such as cutting, grinding, filming, exposing, etching, developing, electroplating, laminating, drilling, surface treatments, solder masking, potting, etc. For a good quality PCB, the manufacturer maintains strict control of each of these processes. The drilling process makes many types of holes in a PCB, such as: Through Holes Plated Through Holes Non-Plated Tool Holes Plated Slotted Holes Non-Plated Slotted Holes Vias Blind Vi ..read more

Rush PCB UK makes various types of PCBs for the electronics industry. While determining the standard board thickness, the number of layers in a PCB is the key factor in deciding its actual thickness. As the number of layers in a PCB depends on its design and application, the thickness of the PCB will also vary according to its application. For instance, some applications will need a thicker board, while others may require a thinner one. However, the industry’s standard for the thickness of a PCB is 1.57 mm (0.063 inches). PCB thickness typically refers to the thickness after the board is compl ..read more
