F1 printed circuit boards
circuit board

Whenever technological development is talked about in terms of Formula One, it is the holy trinity of power, weight and aerodynamics that are very much to the fore. Without development in these areas, a team will go backwards relative to the competition. Yet, there are other parameters that play vital roles in making sure that a team is at the sharp end of the grid. The only difference is that these other areas are less ‘fashionable’ and can come further down the F1 priority scale. One of these vital, yet interrelated topics is electronics. Like all great engineering feats, the challenge facing electronics engineers working in Formula One racing is to achieve that critical balance between performance and reliability. And nowhere is this tension more evidently played out than in the area of printed circuit board (PCB) design and manufacture. While the wafer thin electronic components are hidden from view, their role is crucial in the smooth running of the car, engine and braking management systems as well as critical performance monitoring from the pits.
