North Texas Chapter IPC Designers Council
presents:
“PCB Cost
Matrix”
Did
you know that panel utilization was the most
important cost driver in PWB price?
What are the major PWB
process steps and what are their costs?
What does board
complexity do to your price??
Do those exotic processes
(HDI, VIP, BC, BR) really cost more?? (Hint—You bet
they do)!!!
What materials will meet
my requirements without adding too much cost??
When do process yields
start to impact my board price??
Why does IPC 6012B Class
3 cost more than Class 2? Do I really need it??
Come hear our guest speaker provide a tool for
comparative cost analysis during design.
