Inner Layer Precision & Yields
As technology advances, the cost of a finished circuit board can amount to some very big numbers. Building accuracy into your inner layers as well as being able to assess their pass/fail status as early as possible is critical. Thus, whether automation cuts down on handling issues, additional in-process testing identifies defects earlier than final test, or you replace an old line with a superior process that improves product quality, increasing the accuracy in your inner layer production is essential for all PCB fabricators. Not doing so will ensure that, eventually, you will no longer be in this game. In this month’s PCB007 Magazine, we take a close look at building precision into your inner layers.
