What is PCB design?

PCB design involves creating the layout for printed circuit boards (PCBs), which are used to mechanically support and electrically connect electronic components using conductive pathways, tracks or signal traces etched from copper sheets laminated onto a non-conductive substrate. It's commonly used in virtually all electronic devices, from simple consumer products to complex industrial and aerospace equipment, to provide a reliable and organized platform for electronic circuitry.
