A differentiation between plated-through (pth) and non-plated-
through holes (npth) in your data is very important! Please
export a single drill-file for pth and npth drills, each (e.g.
Excellon or Sieb&Meyer). This rule applies also for blind and
buried vias

Silk ScreenThe marking print eases assembly and additionally allows to
apply a revision number on the printed circuit board. Multi PCB
offers white and black marking print.

Solder MaskPlated-through-holes (pth) can, of course, be exempted
completely from solderstop (e.g. test points, etc.). In General,
you should cover pths with solderstop to avoid solder-bridges!

Heat Sink
Heat Sink help transfer heat to an
area where it can be better
dissipated.

Solder Mask
Variation in colors help distinguish
between part numbers and even
revisions.

V-Scoring is used to prepare printed circuit boards for
mechanical separation. In this process, the PCBs get a pull
linkage, done with precise cutters.

Scoring Angels
Scoring is only possible in straight lines, horizontal and vertical,
from and to PCB outer edges We advise to score only PCBs down
to a minimum thickness of 1mm, for stability reasons (thinner
PCBs: notch milling)

Score
• Easy removal of board from panel
• Cost Effective
Route
• Used for irregular (non square) shapes
Score & Route
• Material and Space savings
• Mixed use applications

V-Scoring
Cut-Outs as well as Contours are
normally milled.

HAL (Hot Air Levelling) is the most tried surface finish. It is suitable for
standard SMD but for finepitch applications, a chemical surface is
preferable
H.A.L.

17
A very common surface with characteristics closely resembling those
of HAL. Due to a faster oxidation process, shelf life depends strongly
on temperature and packaging. Fingerprints on the surface should
be avoided at all costs!
Copper

A surface very similar to chemical tin, with better attributes at
oxidation and for contact appliances.
Silver

Chemical gold, as well as chemical tin and silver, has a very
planar surface and good oxidation resistance. It is suited
splendidly for finepitch and bonding (alu wire) appliances.
Chemical gold has replaced carbon print for keyboards.

PC / PCI slots are f.e. used to connect printed circuit boards
directly to main boards (motherboards). It is differentiated
between PC-AT standard with a grid space of 2.54mm and PCI
standard with a grid space of 1.27mm between the gold
fingers.

ChamferingChamfering of the gold fingers is to be avoided at all costs,
therefore they need to have a spacing of min. 0.7mm from the
PCB edge. We advise you to connect the gold-fingers with 200µm
tracks to the edge (see sketch). Due to the production process,
gold fingers are always connected with the edge like this.10/2/08 Select Circuits Presentation / Created by Joe Lara / Document # 001-001-A
