In The Name of ALLAH, The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful .

The document discusses the process of printed circuit board (PCB) fabrication. It begins with an overview of PCBs and their basic function of providing insulating material with conductive strips for electrical connections. It then describes the steps of PCB design using software and the manufacturing process. The key steps of the manufacturing process involve: preparing copper-coated sheets, transferring the circuit design using heat, etching away extra copper using ferric chloride solution, and assembling components by drilling, placing, soldering, and testing.

Printed Circuit Board
(PCB)

Fabrication
Printed Circuit Boards
Definition
Printed Circuit Boards are primarily
insulating material sheet base, acting as
mechanical support, onto which conductive
strips are printed serving as electrical
connections.
PCB Design

o PCB board design defines the routing of


electrical pathways between components.
o It is derived from a schematic representation
of a circuit with the help of a software.
o It translates the schematic symbols and
libraries into physical components and
connections
Fabrication Process
o First of All we make a circuit design using PCB
software such as PCB Wizard and Easy-PC.
The PCB wizard is more user friendly and thus
mostly used at student level.
The Easy-PC is usually used at commercial and
professional level manufacturing .
Manufacturing Process
Basic requirement
o Insulated fiber-based copper-coated sheets
are commonly used for the making PCBs…
o These sheets have thickness of about 0.0007
to 0.00134”.
Steps of PCB
Fabrication Process
a. Sheet Preparation
o Cut a piece of the copper-coated fiber sheet
according to the required circuit size made using
‘PCB- wizard’.
o Clean the sheet piece carefully to remove all the
grease & dust by using a scotch pad and soft
detergent.
o Rinse it with water and
let it dry naturally or by
hot air blow.
b. Image Transferring

o Obtain a print of the designed circuit, using PCB


wizard, on a glazed paper using a laser printer.
Place the glazed paper print with its face down
onto the cleaned sheet piece and secure it in
place using scotch tape.
o Apply heat to the glazed paper back using a hot
electric iron. The printed circuit design will be
transferred onto the copper-coated sheet.
C. Repair of Printed circuit

o If the circuit print transferred on the sheet


has some missing lines or points, repair or fill
in the lines using a medium-tip permanent
marker.
d. Etching Process
o The etching is done by using Ferric Chloride
solution.
o The permanent ink of the transferred image
protects the copper circuitry drawing from
being etched away.
Steps after Etching

o Drilling Holes at Pads


o Testing of Components
o Placement of Components
o Soldering the Components
o Trimming of the components Legs
o Testing of the Circuit
Theoretical Assignment
Find Answers for the following Questions

o What are the types of Circuit Connecting boards?, List the


Applications, Merits & demerits of each type of the boards?
o Why PCBs are more commonly used for commercial and
industrials purposes?
o Write down the equation for the chemical reaction of Copper
with Ferric Chloride
o What are the advantages and disadvantages of Multilayer
over single layer PCBs
o Describe Xerography and it`s relation with manufacturing of
PCBs.
