Printed circuit board with components attached. A printed circuit board (PCB) is a plastic board made for connecting electronic components together. These are used in almost all computers and electronics today. The card is made of a material that does not conduct electricity, like fiberglass or plastic.
Although more accurate, the term printed wiring board has fallen into disuse. A PCB populated with electronic components is called a printed circuit assembly (PCA), printed circuit board assembly or PCB assembly (PCBA).The IPC preferred term for assembled boards is circuit card assembly (CCA), and for assembled backplanes it is backplane assemblies.rinted circuit boards are used in all but the simplest electronic products. Alternatives to PCBs include wire wrap and point-to-point construction. PCBs require the additional design effort to lay out the circuit, but manufacturing and assembly can be automated.
