Blog is devoted to board layout and assembly

The Screaming Circuits blog covers a broad variety of design advice and is also used for tutorials on process and company announcements.

PCB assembly service provider Screaming Circuits has now published more than 200 articles online to help electrical design engineers solve board layout and assembly problems.

Authors write about many of the challenges associated with design engineering - including CAD parts libraries, PCB finishes, new components, layout challenges, new materials and RoHS topics.

The blog has special sections devoted to hot industry topics, like via-in-pad.

Readers can also download design guide PDFs dealing with QFN design guidelines, marking diodes and centroid files.

The Screaming Circuits blog is designed to pass on knowledge that can be helpful to any engineer, customer or not.

Screaming Circuits sees myriad PCB and component technologies every day and can share lessons learned about advanced packages such as 0201 passives, tiny QFN parts, micro BGAs; PCB finishes such as ENIG, immersion silver, OSP, RoHS and non-RoHS; and layout techniques such as Via-in-pad, Solder paste layer design and package selection.

"With the fast pace of advances in components and PCB technologies, we saw a genuine need for a timely way to give design advice to the hardware engineering community", says Duane Benson, Web Marketing Manager, Screaming Circuits.

"We use this blog as a vehicle to help engineers by passing on tips and techniques that we learn by confronting a wide variety of technologies every day".
