fiducials? #36

What’s a fiducial and what’s it doing there on my PCB?

repollo commented 1 year ago

Fiducials are used as reference points/markers in pick-and-place machines for precise component placement, this is used a lot in Surface Mount Technology. Otherwise computers would have a hard time trying to install an SMD component on a PCB.
