Chapter 4. Introduction to Industry Standards
In the previous chapters we looked at how to use the OrCAD tools to design circuit schematics in Capture, route PCBs with PCB Editor, and postprocess the design for fabricating the board. We have not, as of yet, taken a look at how to design the PCB itself. Chapter 4 and Chapter 6 provide an introduction to PCB design. Chapter 4 introduces industry standards related to PCB design.
Not every PCB that is manufactured makes it into service. The ratio of the number of PCBs that enter service to the number of PCBs manufactured is called
yield (in percent). The higher the yield the better because failed boards cost time and money and produce waste. There are several failure points that can be addressed to ...
