We are delighted to announce the successful completion of the PCB Design Workshop held at Narasaraopet Engineering College on 30-31 July 2024. Organized by Vishishta Innovators Pvt. Ltd., this workshop provided students with an in-depth understanding of Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design and fabrication, empowering them with essential skills for their future projects and careers.
Workshop Highlights
Comprehensive Curriculum
The workshop was designed to cover various aspects of PCB design and fabrication. Students learned about different types of PCBs, schematic design, component layout methods, and routing techniques for single-sided boards. The curriculum also included post-processing of design and fabrication documents, enabling participants to independently design and fabricate their own PCBs by the end of the course.
Hands-On Learning
The workshop was divided into detailed sessions, ensuring that students received both theoretical knowledge and practical experience. On the first day, participants were introduced to PCB electronics, including the importance of PCBs, their advantages, and basic electronic components like resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, and transistors. Students were also introduced to EasyEDA, a powerful PCB designing tool, and learned how to draw schematics using this software.
The hands-on experiments on the first day included:
LED Resistor Calculation
Modeling of mini regulated power supply board
Making of police car lights using 555 timer
Designing of melody Generator Circuit using um66
Design and implementation of automatic plant watering system
Implementation of Alcohol detection system in Vehicle using relay switch
Implementation of touch switch based on 555 timer
Tank Over flow alarm using Transistor switching
Fire Alarm based Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) using Thermistor
Rain Alarm based on NPN transistor
Automatic Street Light using LDR sensor
On the second day, the focus shifted to various PCB fabrication methods, such as toner transfer, hand drawing, laser engraving, and photoresistive techniques. Students were guided through the detailed steps of photoresistive PCB fabrication, from layout tracing to etching using different chemicals. They also learned about soldering techniques, both DIP and SMD soldering, and component assembly.
Technical Quiz and Awards
The workshop concluded with a technical quiz on Kahoot, where students showcased their knowledge and skills. The best performers were awarded for their outstanding participation and innovative ideas.
