PCB Layout & Design
Design/Engineering process
PCB Layout & Design is the process of planning and drawing the physical arrangement of an electronic circuit on a printed circuit board (PCB).
Two Main Parts
1. PCB Design (Schematic Design)
- Create the circuit diagram
- Define:
- Components (resistors, ICs, etc.)
- Electrical connections (nets)
2. PCB Layout
- Arrange components on the board
- Route tracks (copper paths) to connect them
- Decide board shape and layers
Steps in PCB Layout & Design
1. Schematic Creation
- Draw circuit using tools like
Altium Designer or KiCad
2. Netlist Generation
- Software generates list of all connections
3. Component Placement
- Components arranged logically:
- ICs first
- Then supporting components
4. Routing (Track Design)
- Copper traces drawn to connect components
- Can be:
- Manual routing
- Auto-routing
5. Layer Stack Design
- Decide:
- Single-layer / double-layer / multi-layer
6. Design Rule Check (DRC)
- Ensures:
- No short circuits
- Proper spacing
- Manufacturability
7. Output Files Generation
- Files like:
- Gerber files (used for fabrication)
Objectives of PCB Design
- Ensure correct electrical connections
- Minimize noise and interference
- Optimize space and cost
- Improve performance and reliability
