PCBs or Printed Circuit Boards are used to connect electronic components. They are the heart of electronic circuits and integral parts of electronic devices that we use every day. So, if you are curious about what a PCB or Printed Circuit Board is and where we can use it, then keep reading this article.

What is a Printed Circuit Board(PCB)?

PCB is a thin layer of a board made of non-conductive material and fabricated with a copper circuit. It has circuit components like resistors, capacitors, or anything. All connections are attached to the PCB boards. PCBs are widely used materials and every electronic gadget has a PCB inside it. Different types of PCBs are used for different purposes.

Now you might be wondering what are the common uses of PCBs. Different industries and different sectors use PCBs almost everywhere. Everything from small devices to big machinery needs PCBs. Here, we will discuss some common applications of PCBs

You will find PCB in almost every electronics gadget:

Consumer electronics is the most used sector of PCBs. Billions of people around the world depends on electronic gadgets. This is where PCBs are the best used. From computers to mobile phones to TVs to cooking ware, everything consists of PCBs.

Smartphones, smart watches, tablets come under this category where PCBs are used.

Multi-layer PCBs are used in laptops, computers and graphics.

Like TVs Microwave induction even refrigerators have PCBs

PCBs are widely popular in the medical Industry:

When it comes to the medical industry, PCBs are very much useful. Also, medical devices are used for sensitive uses. That is why reliable manufacturers like China pcb make these kinds of devices. The demand for PCBs in the medical industry is growing fast day by day.

CT scan machines, ultrasonic scanners are devices where PCBs are often used.

All kinds of monitoring devices like glucose, blood pressure, oxygen levels and other monitoring machines need PCBs in them.

Like infusion pump, microscope control system unit compressor, and the medical research sectors need PCBs as well. There are so many other devices that we don't even know have PCBs inside them.

PCBs are used in industrial machines also:

The PCBs employed in the commercial sector typically ought to be particularly high-powered and be sturdy enough to resist the tough conditions that exist in industrial facilities.

To meet these tough circumstances, industrial PCBs are made of durable metals so that they don't get affected by hard conditions.

For powering instruments to measure instruments, all kinds of industrial devices need PCBs. In the automotive sector also, PCBs are in huge demand.

With each passing day, technology will grow and get advanced, and demand for PCBs will increase without a doubt. Our life is so much dependent on these electronic devices that we can not even think about spending a single day without them.

My favorite part about bear videos this summer have been the screams. After the reactions in this video of a bear opening a car door in Yellowstone, I didn't think that I would hear a male voice at a higher pitch. I was wrong. When Rodney Ginn realizes his Mammoth Lakes, CA home has been broken into by a mama bear and her two cubs, he pretty much just loses it (rightly so).  RELATED: Bear Officially Out-Evolves Yellowstone Tourists, Opens Car Door The mother bear charges Rodney up the stairs,

He stopped by the LPP Studios on his way to complete his new custom No Board he was crafting with Season 1 guest, Sheldon Steckman, from Garywayne skis…. and maybe soon to be Garywayne No Boards? We talk about being a pseudo, reality star on his brother’s Keep Your Tips UP show, which will be releasing its second season shortly. I asked him to share some of his experiences about traveling across

If you've been wondering where he's been lately, he's spent the better part of the last couple years healing and rehabbing from two different ACL surgeries as well as a bone graft on his knee. We met up with him for a killer week of skiing powder in the French Alps where he is a featured guest coach on a Uthrive freeride ski camp.  LISTEN ANYTIME SPOTIFY / GOOGLE PLAY / ITUNES In spite of missing most of the
