Continuity Testing
A procedure in which voltage is applied to two interconnected lands to ascertain the presence or absence of current flow.
Contaminate/Contaminant
An impurity or foreign substance whose presence on printed wiring assemblies could electrolytically, chemically, or galvanically corrode the system.
Contact Resistance
The electrical resistance of the metallic surfaces at their interface in the contact area under specified conditions.
Contact Area
The common area between a conductor and a connector through which the flow of electricity takes place.
Connector Tongue
A protrusion of the Printed Circuit Board edge that is manufactured to a configuration to mate with a receptacle that provides electrical and/or mechanical junction between the Printed Circuit Board a...
Connection
One plug or receptacle which can be easily joined to or separated from its mate. Multiple-contact connectors join two or more conductors with others in one mechanical assembly.
Conformal Coating
A thin dielectric cover brushed, dipped or sprayed over parts and circuits of PCBs for environmental and mechanical protection.
Conductor
A single conductive path in conductive pattern. A PCB has at least one layer of conductors. Synonyms: path, trace.
Conductor Width
The observable width of the pertinent conductor at any point chosen at random on the printed board, normally viewed from vertically above unless otherwise specified.
Conductor-to-hole Spacing
The distance between the edge of a conductor and the edge of a supported or unsupported hole.
Conductor Thickness
The thickness of the conductor at any point chosen at random on the printed board, normally viewed from vertically above unless otherwise specified.
Conductor Spacing
The average or minimum (as specified) distance between the adjacent edges of conductors on the same layer of a printed board.
Conductor Side
The side of a single-sided printed board containing the conductive pattern.
Conductor Layer
The total conductive pattern formed upon one side of a single layer of base material.
Conductor Base width
The conductor width at the plane of the surface of the base material. See also: Conductor width.
Conductive Pattern
The configuration or design of the conductive material on the base laminate. Includes conductors, lands, and through connections.
Conductive Foil
A thin sheet of metal that may cover one or both sides of the base material and is intended to form the conductive pattern.
Conductive Adhesive
A material to which metal particles (usually silver ) are added to increase electrical conductivity.
