HDI PCB LAYOUT

How A Private PCB Design Contractor Can Help You with a Project that You Were Told It Couldn’t be Done. When working with large corporations we work well with your engineering staff. With today’s state of the art technologies such as video conferencing, Microsoft Power Point and email for correspondence we can successfully communicate without the need of physically being there. This saves time and time is money. Maybe you are an entrepreneur like myself. I can help you get the job done as well by using other entrepreneurs with their own expertise this will help us with your job task. Whether it be more engineering services, or manufacturing and Assembly Services we will get you to the finish line cost effectively. We have experience with custom interposer designs for your flip chip technology or wire bonding needs to go to PCB. We use domestic and international services for our manufacturing services. Nevertheless, there are times when you will have a design that will need a designer that can do a design that is not the average PCB Design! That is where Philips Technical Service can help you. We understand the process of fabrication and if the components FIT, we can connect them with the minimum amount of signal layers to meet the constraints of your design. We specialize in PCB Design which is always done in house. We are a TurnKey design bureau by brokering engineering and mechanical design through local companies and we are also helping to support the local community and keeping costs down through competition. This also lets us use multiple references and resources to complete your design. I can go on and tell you how long I been doing this, Let’s just say I seen a lot advancements in the industry. By working with talented companies, we have great success going from silicon to organic PCB interposers with up 1200 connections in less than a sq. in. of area. So, depending on the complexity of your design it may pay for you to outsource it.

Let us work together to have your project in the manufacturing stage as fast as possible. We use Cadence Orcad and Allegro for Layout. Even though we use the latest tools in HDI Printed Circuit Design, it doesn’t mean that the outsourcing company can just dump a project on PCB Design vendor without being fully engaged in your design project. We have a saying garbage in garbage out. So in order to get a design you will be happy with stay engaged don’t take vacation after you send out the design. Most of the time the companies design packages are incomplete. One: they are usually missing a full mechanical representation of the board area and fixed components such as connectors, switches for alignment with front panel, rear panel and backplanes. Two: A full detail data sheet and if possible component sample of each different type of component package to be used on the printed circuit board. This is important while the designer is experienced in building library parts [PCB Footprints ] it is still possible to make a mistake usually do to time or just happened to misread the data sheet. So it is important the company also checks the components especially if they don’t provide actual samples. Three: A Schematic and Routing concerns that will affect the operation of the circuit. Like Differential Pairs, controlled impedance, matching line length on speed designs etc…. Checking the project is the key do not assume anything. Also do not be Over Anxious and order a lot of boards for a prototype run, there is always something that was over looked so it is smart to order just a few before you go to production. If you scheduled yourself properly time shouldn’t be an issue all the time so plan yourself accordingly. Overview: So what is needed for a complete acceptable design package 1) A Schematic Database or Netlist defining the circuit and critical signal paths that is also compatible with our pcb design software. 2) A complete Dimensioned Mechanical diagram of pcb outline and fixed component locations. Along with all component data sheets and samples. If the data cannot be supplied we offer those services at an additional charge depending the complexity of the project and must be discussed at the time your project is quoted.
