Hello,
I have a question about pcb trace spacing. What trace spacing should I use on my pcb for 12v signals. Nominally it should be a few mils minimum for a peak voltage of 15v on an outer layer. My question is in an automotive application, there could be short transient spikes of 100v due to load dumping on the 12v trace. Do I have to space them for 100v peak?
Regards,
