At the heart of every electronic device is a PCB, or printed circuit board. That’s true whether we’re talking about your tablet computer or a life-saving pacemaker.

When you look at nearly any electronic device, a printed circuit board (PCB) is the building block that allows it to operate. PCBs vary from simple layered boards that might be found in a garage door opener to boards with dozens of high-speed and high-density layers used in servers and supercomputers.

Take a moment to consider the sheer number of printed circuit boards (PCBs) that you encounter in a given day. There are circuits boards on your phone, your computer, tablet, vehicle, television, and countless other pieces of equipment.
