Design printed circuit boards for assembly.

Design printed circuit boards for assembly. With printed circuit boards (PCB's), guidelines include: minimizing component variety, standardizing component packaging, using auto-insertable or placeable components, using a common component orientation and component placement to minimize soldering "shadows", selecting component and trace width that is within the process capability, using appropriate pad and trace configuration and spacing to assure good solderjoints and avoid bridging, using standard board and panel sizes, using tooling holes, establishing minimum boarders, and avoiding or minimizing adjustments.
