Understanding PCB Copper Pour: Benefits, Drawbacks, and Design Considerations

PCB Copper Pour refers to the area filled with copper in a PCB layer. This layer can be on the top, bottom, or any internal layer of the PCB, and PCB copper pour can be used for grounding, reference, or to isolate specific components or circuits from the rest of the elements on that layer. … Read more
