Grounding Strategies for Printed Circuit Boards

Grounding Strategies for Printed Circuit Boards

Design and layout of a printed circuit board (PCB) for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is probably the most cost-effective measure possible in the quest for EMC compliance. It is cost-effective because it requires no additional components. It requires just the knowledge of EMC layout methods and experience in applying them. ...

Drill Size Chart

This drill size chart provides a list of standard size drill bits in several measurement systems, including fractional, metric, wire gauge number, and letter. The decimal equivalents of the diameters are shown in both English and Metric units. Fractional sizes are measured in inches, while metric sizes are measured in millimeters. The wire gauge and letter systems refer to tool diameters that increase as the wire gauge decreases from #107 to #1 and then continues from A to Z.

What are the best speeds and feeds?

How fast I can cut without breaking a bit?

If you are primarliy cutting metal, in most cases, the process of selecting the proper speed (RPM) and feed-rate is relatively straightforward. If you are cutting woods or plastics, its not so easy. Nonetheless, it is possible to arrive at an optimum combination of speed and feed reliably and repeatably without experiencing too much brain-death.

The following discussion assumes that:

SPEED always refers to spindle RPM
FEED always refers to how fast the cutter moves
