Choosing a thickness gauge for Printed Circuit Board (PCB) manufacturing and Quality Control (QC) inspection requires matching the measurement technology to the specific target layer—whether measuring total board stackup, copper trace/plating thickness, or protective conformal coatings.
V-Score Remaining Thickness explains how to prepare the instrument, measure consistently, and investigate questionable results without confusing remaining thickness with groove depth.
CMI700 coating thickness gauge utilizes micro-resistance technology for non-destructive inspection of copper thickness inside holes.
