Blind Via
A Blind via connects one outer layer of the PCB with one inner layer. The technology enables complex design structures and a high circuit density. Therefore, blind vias are preferred for HD
Drilling program
A drilling program is used to communicate the required holes on a printed circuit board to the PCB manufacturer. The drilling program is exported from as Excellon or Sieb & Meyer
Buried Via
Buried Vias connect at least two PCB inner layers, but no outer layer. Buried vias are not visible from the outside of the PCB.
This technology enables complex design structures and a hig
D-Code list
Layout data in outdated Gerber RS-274D standard format require a separate D-code list. This list contains information about the geometric shape (circles, rectangles, circular rings are co
Throughplating
Throughplating electrically connects (opposite) layers of the circuit board (see via). For this a hole is drilled through the board. Because the base material (e.g. FR4) is electricall
Contour milling
Contour milling, like milling, is a mechanical processing of printed circuit boards with a rotating cutting tool. Contour milling is used to define the contour of the PCB at the very
Milling
Milling is the mechanical processing of printed circuit boards with a rotating cutting tool. This allows you to realize round outer contours (contour milling), slots and breakouts, e.g. to cr
Surface
The surface of the printed circuit board refers to the finish of the connection surfaces in the conductor pattern. The surface protects the copper from oxidation and determines which connecti
