From the Back Cover
*Gives a complete overview of the printed circuit board design process
*Describes how to produce printed circuit boards in small quantities (ideal for prototypes), with an emphasis on safety
*Author is owner a company specializing in the design and manufacture of printed circuit boards
Printed circuit boards are ubiquitous in today's electronic devices, and engineers are commonly faced with the need for small quantities of a certain board design for prototyping, testing, or construction of a small number of devices. This book describes the process of making a printed circuit board, beginning with the conversion of a schematic diagram into a board layout to the fabrication of the board itself. Attention is given to designing a board for manufacturability and safety during the fabrication process.
