From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

My objective in Wikipedia is to help pcb designers create better boards. I work for a company that does assembly. We see large numbers of board designs and I've been compiling a list of areas that give a lot of designers headaches. I also design and build robots as a hobby, so I understand the frustrations of designing pcbs.

I hope that the edits and adds I bring will help at least a few people to avoid some of the difficulties that I have had and that I see on a regular basis.
