What is PCB?
PCB, also known as printed circuit board, is a circuit board without any electronic components mounted or assembled on it. It consists of a substrate (usually a non – conductive material such as fiberglass – reinforced epoxy resin) and a pattern of copper traces. These copper traces are designed to provide the electrical pathways for connecting components once they are installed. The bare PCB may also have drilled holes for component leads and vias (connections between different layers in a multi – layer PCB).
What are the steps of PCB Manufacturing ?

FAQs About MultPCB Services
1. What are the different types of PCBs?
PCBs can be single-layer, double-layer, or multilayer. They also include flexible, rigid, rigid-flex, and metal-core PCBs for various applications.
2. What materials are used in PCB manufacturing?
Common materials include FR4 (fiberglass epoxy laminate), polyimide for flexible boards, and metal-core materials for thermal management.
3. What is the difference between single-sided, double-sided, and multilayer PCBs?
Single-sided PCBs have components and traces on one side, double-sided PCBs have them on both sides, and multilayer PCBs consist of multiple layers of conductive material separated by insulation.
4. What are the typical steps in PCB manufacturing?
The main steps include design, material preparation, imaging, etching, drilling, plating, solder mask application, surface finishing, and testing.
5. What are the common surface finishes in PCB manufacturing?
Popular finishes include HASL, ENIG, OSP, Immersion Tin, and Immersion Silver, each offering different levels of protection and solderability.
6. What are the tolerances in PCB manufacturing?
Tolerances for aspects like trace width, hole size, and layer alignment vary depending on the manufacturing capabilities and customer requirements. Please refeer to PCB capabilities for details.
7. How is quality control ensured during PCB manufacturing?
Quality control involves inspections such as Automated Optical Inspection (AOI), X-ray inspection, and electrical testing for continuity and short circuits.
8. What are the lead times for PCB manufacturing?
Standard lead times range from 4–7 days for prototypes to several weeks for high-volume production, depending on complexity and order size. MultPCB can also provide quickturn prototype service, the leadtime can be 24 to 72 hours.
9. What factors influence PCB manufacturing costs?
Key factors include board size, layer count, material type, surface finish, drilling hole size and quantity, copper thickness and volume of the order etc.
