Hi all,
Trying to collect some info about the current state of PCB fabrication
technology - can anyone point to some articles or other info describing
the following kind of stuff:
- what actual steps are involved in producing a multi-layer PCB these
days?
- what is the current state of PCB fabrication technology (leading edge
and practical)
- what component tolerances, trace tolerances, via sizes etc are
usually possible these days? practical?
- approximate cost penalties for adding extra layers?
- buried or blind vias? are they worth using or often too expensive? is
it usually better to just add extra layers to help with routing?
- special dielectric materials to improve capacitance between power/gnd
planes? is this worthwhile or too expensive/tricky to give much
advantage?
- any other significant new stuff to be aware of?
Thanks for any help - just trying to update myself on what's out there.
