In the task of manufacturing printed circuit board PCB layout plays a core role. A graphical representation of the circuitry is very necessary to manufacture a PCB. And it is produce during the layout process. The detail description and graphical representation of the circuit is better known as PCB design. Nowadays various automated machines, driven in part by the data provided by the PCB files are used to assemble and test most of the circuit boards manufactured. That is why PCB layout becomes evident.

Due to the advancement of PCB Design Software by several different companies, it becomes very easier to manufacture the PCB layout by using CAD software tools and PCB design guidelines. For effectively and efficiently design a PCB and to generate the necessary files to manufacture the board, these programs are computer-based applications that offer various tools and techniques.

Design for manufacturability has rapidly becoming the most integrated part of the PCB design process. While designing a board the Designers must take into consideration the manufacturing process. For which the designers needs to understand the manufacturing process and how layout affects that process.
