Prototype PCB Assembly

Prototype PCB assembly

Prototype PCB assembly represents a fundamental stage of the printed circuit production process and is a type of rapid prototyping of printed circuit board assemblies. Prototype printed circuit board (PCB) assembly goes by many names. For example: Surface Mount Technology (SMT) PCB prototype, PCBA prototype assembly, PCB sample assembly, etc. The term prototype PCB assembly refers to rapid prototyping PCBAs used to test the functionality of new electronic designs. These help with quality assurance, verifying that the tested product is free of problems, finding bugs and updating designs in a timely manner. Usually, 2~3 iterations will be performed on the prototype PCB assembly of electronic products in the early stage to ensure that there is no problem in the assembly of electronic products, and mass production is carried out.
