Ever since the introduction of circuit boards, they have been evolving. They started as single sided, graduating to double-sided with plated through holes. Shortly thereafter multilayer circuit boards were introduced. The evolution didn’t stop there. New substrates began to come to the market with improved electrical and mechanical properties allowing designers to create denser designs
