Precision PCB Layout
At Mars PCB, we recognize that PCB layout is the cornerstone of every successful electronics project. Our expert team meticulously arranges components, traces, and connections to transform your design into a functional and efficient circuit board. With our advanced PCB layout services, we ensure optimal performance and ease of manufacturing.
From Schematic to PCB Layout
Traditionally, creating schematic drawings and PCB layouts was a manual process requiring skilled professionals. Today, with the advent of ECAD tools, transitioning from a schematic to a PCB layout has become streamlined and automated through sophisticated software.
Organize Component Placement
Efficiently placing components is crucial. After partitioning and adhering to design rules, our experts position the components on the board, ensuring a layout that supports successful board construction.
Select Circuit Board Dimensions
Begin by choosing the right dimensions for your circuit board. Our ECAD tools offer both standard sizes and customizable options for area and thickness to meet your specific requirements.
Define Stack Configuration
Once the board size is set, select the materials, layer count, and type to establish the stack configuration. This essential step sets the foundation for the entire design process.
Manage Routing and Tracing
Routing and tracing involve connecting the components with precise wiring. This step is particularly complex for multi-layer boards with numerous through-holes (PTH) that handle internal and ground plane signals. Proper spacing and adherence to track routing guidelines are essential.
Perform Comprehensive Checks
Before finalizing the PCB design, we conduct thorough checks to identify and rectify any errors. Our Design Rule Check (DRC) ensures your design meets all layout guidelines and manufacturing standards, aligning with our Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles.
PCB Layout Software
Our PCB layout services utilize the latest design software, ensuring potential
issues are identified early in the design phase, reducing the need for costly revisions later.
Altium
Altium provides extensive component libraries, minimizing the time needed to create footprints and symbols. Our engineers use its 3D visualization to spot and resolve clearance issues early.
Cadence Allegro
Allegro handles complex designs with high layer counts and advanced routing needs. It also supports team collaboration, allowing multiple engineers to work on different design aspects simultaneously.
Mentor Graphics PADS
PADS offers tools for high-speed designs, including differential pairs and impedance control. Our engineers integrate designs seamlessly with simulation tools for validation and optimization.
