How can we distinguish between different types of PCB?

AI Thread Summary
Different types of Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) can be distinguished by their isolating materials, layer counts, and processing requirements. The term "distinguish" can refer to various contexts, including differentiation in manufacturing or chemical separation. Clarification on the intended meaning of "distinguish" is necessary for a more focused discussion. The acronym PCB can also refer to other terms, such as Polychlorinated Biphenyls or various organizations. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for effective communication in PCB-related topics.

they have different names or something else?

Do you mean Printed Circuit Boards? If so, they have different isolating materials, different number of layers, different processing requirements etc. etc.
 
A question well stated is half answered.

Differentiate? meaning
"Distinguish" , or "Take derivative of" , or "Chemically separate" ??

Acronym Definition
PCB Printed Circuit Board
PCB Polychlorinated Biphenyls (CAS Number 27323-18-8)
PCB Pakistan Cricket Board
PCB Panama City Beach (Florida)
PCB Partido Comunista Brasileiro (Brazilian Communist Party)

Perhaps you'll clarify what you meant.
 
Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
