You have two PCB designs: Design X with 2 layers costing $12 per layer, and Design Y with 4 layers costing $7 per layer. Which design has the lower total cost?

ACannot determine without more info
BDesign Y
CBoth have the same cost
DDesign X
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Calculate total cost for Design X

    2 layers * $12 = $24 total cost.
  2. Step 2: Calculate total cost for Design Y

    4 layers * $7 = $28 total cost.
  3. Step 3: Compare costs

    Design X costs $24, Design Y costs $28, so Design X is cheaper.
  4. Final Answer:

    Design X -> Option D
  5. Quick Check:

    Design X cost = 24, Design Y cost = 28 [OK]
Quick Trick: Calculate total cost for each design and compare [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Choosing design with more layers
  • Ignoring cost per layer
  • Assuming equal cost
