PCB Potting Resins: Ultimate Protection for Electronic Assembly

Fully encapsulated PCB module with black epoxy potting resin providing moisture, shock, and vibration protection for automotive electronics

Today the electronics industry is one of the most rapidly expanding industries in the world, with an almost unlimited range of applications. more and more printed circuit boards (PCBs) are found in many domestic, industrial, automotive and military devices and require protection from their environment.

What is PCB Trace Impedance and How to Calculate it?

​​Diagram comparing microstrip and stripline PCB trace structures for impedance calculation​

PCB trace impedance is the sum of all the resistance and reactance components of an electrical signal path. An ideal transmission line must have a characteristic impedance that matches both the transmitter and receiver of the intended signal. If the characteristic impedance of the matched transmission line is faithfully maintained, then the full signal sent by the transmitter is seen by the receiver at the end of the trace.

How to Choose Prepreg Dk Value When Design a PCB Stack-UP
