Printed circuit soldermask
to be covered with solder mask, the inner copper layers are protected by the adjacent substrate layers. The soldering mask soldermask is made of a fluid substance like an ink and is applied in a thin layer similar to varnish on the entire surface of the printed circuit less on the

and/or between layers of conductive substrate sheets. A printed circuit board can have several layers pcb proiectare of copper which are almost always arranged in pairs. The number of layers and the designed interconnection between them (vias, PTHs) gives a general estimate of the complexity of the board. Using multiple layers allows
Printed circuit board silkscreen
a non-conductive permanent epoxy ink. The color is usually white, although other colors are available: yellow, black, blue, red. Screen printing is used to render useful information on the PCB proiectare pcb board that can help users during assembly. It is used to mark component values, part
