Questions and Answers

What is the primary advantage of using double-sided PCBs over single-sided PCBs?

They are less expensive to manufacture

They have a larger surface area for the conductor pattern (correct)

They are only used for simple circuits

They do not require vias for electrical connections

What is the purpose of vias in double-sided PCBs?

To reduce the cost of manufacturing

To connect the two conductor patterns electrically (correct)

To increase the surface area of the PCB

To separate the two conductor patterns

What is a via in the context of double-sided PCBs?

A type of electrical component

A conductor pattern on one side of the board

A hole in the PCB filled or plated with metal (correct)

A type of PCB manufacturing process
