Aspect Ratio
Aspect Ratio is the quotient of the PCB thickness to the diameter of the final hole. Maximum aspect ratio is limited by drilling machine and throughplating process for vias.
Design for Assembly
As well as DFM describes the process to make printed circuit boards ‘producible’, Design for Assembly DfA stands for designing printed circuit boards which are already optimized f
Design for Manufacturing
Design for Manufacturing (short DfM) describes the process of PCB layouting in close coordination with the PCB production and within the printed circuit board manufacturer pr
