Components Design & Library management

Creating a printed circuit board (PCB) has become faster, cheaper and easier over the last several years. Both software and hardware engineers can now add design to their toolbox to create more reliable and repeatable development hardware.

The Importance of PCB Layout in RF Design

RF design focuses on the transmission of a signal without wires or another physical connection. Although it is mostly focused on analog signals, much of today’s RF design is becoming a hybrid of analog and digital design.

Keytek designs and manufactures services for RF design and PCB design. Poor layout can be the cause of numerous functional and compliance issues, so good PCB layout is necessary for electronics designs to work properly. After many years of experience and continuous exchange with manufacturing specialists and PCB manufacturers, we are now creating layouts designed to pass all phases of production without problems. Product quality and reliability are increased by appropriate adjustments to production processes, while costs are usually reduced by avoiding unnecessary or complicated production steps.

The Role of Components in PCB Design

Components are the basic building blocks of designs and even the slightest discrepancy can derail your whole PCB design process. If one bad footprint makes its way through manufacturing, the rest of your design can be invalidated with necessary layout changes. 

The beginning of every design requires a part list to determine what component data needs to be incorporated into your design environment. Every component is composed of several independent elements of design data. Even the most basic component requires a symbol and footprint to be used in a design.

Keytek’s Expertise in PCB and RF Design

At Keytek, we have a vast experience with HDI PCB design and layout design constraints for high-speed interfaces, power distributions networks, or RF designs. We can support you with the PCB design from schematic to fabrication, or we can assist you in the creation process of the most critical blocks. PCB design and RF design services are also one of the ways that help our customers get to market faster.
