How to Choose the Right PCB Materials | Sierra Circuits

PCB material selection is the first step in your PCB design process. Selecting the right PCB materials for your PCB design is very important as it can impact the overall performance of the PCB.

Before selection begins, there are many factors to be considered. Make sure material characteristics fit your specific board requirements and end application.

One of the main problems we face when manufacturing PCBs is the PCB designers’ frequent over-reliance on the material datasheets. The data sheets provide designers with a thorough description of a material’s electrical properties. However, the data sheets fall short when taking into account various real-world manufacturing concerns, and real-world manufacturing concerns matter because they impact yield and cost.
