Multilayer PCBs and the Cutting-Edge of Circuit Board Repair

1 week ago | wevolver.com | Tess Boissonneault

Multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs) represent a growing proportion of PCBs made today, with the growth driven in large part by the increased demand for miniaturized electronics. It makes perfect sense: after all, smaller electronic devices necessitate the compaction of circuits without decreasing functionality. In this article, we’ll be looking more specifically at testing and repair techniques for multilayer PCBs and the challenges that this type of circuit brings up.
