What Does PCB Board Mean?

What exactly is a PCB board? What is the use of a PCB board? These are the questions that just customers want to know. The following article will explain to you what a PCB board is.

PCB board is the abbreviation of Printed Circuit Board. It is an important electronic component, a support for electronic components, and a provider of electrical connections for electronic components. Because it is made by electronic printing, it is called a “printed” circuit board.

The inventor of the printed circuit board was Paul Eisler, an Austrian, who used the printed circuit board in a radio device in 1936. In 1943, the Americans used this technology extensively in military radios. In 1948, the United States officially recognized this invention for commercial use. Since the mid-1950s, printed circuit board technology has only begun to be widely adopted.

Before the advent of printed circuit boards, the interconnection between electronic components was achieved by direct connection of wires. But now, the circuit panel only exists as an effective experimental tool. The printed circuit board has occupied an absolute dominant position in the electronics industry.

PCB boards are classified according to the number of circuit layers single-sided, double-sided and multi-layer boards. Common multi-layer boards are generally 4-layer boards or 6-layer boards, and complex multi-layer boards can reach more than a dozen layers.

According to the soft and hard classification, pcb boards is divided into ordinary circuit boards and flexible PCB boards.

PCB raw materials: copper clad laminate is the substrate material for making printed circuit boards. It is used to support various components, and can achieve electrical connection or electrical insulation between them.

PCB is printed circuit board (Printed circuit board, PCB board), simply put it is a thin board on which integrated circuits and other electronic components are placed.

It will appear in almost every electronic device.

The above is a general explanation about the content of the PCB circuit board.
