East guide technology talk the copy board XVI: PCB copy board legal issues
Update date:2012-9-21
PCB copy board is legitimate, whether it is an offense to have discussed this issue and some peers. In fact, we all know very well that we walk the edge of the law, especially in China, the patent application is responsible for poor oversight only we reverse the survival of the study.
Because there is a huge gap between the electronics industry in China and abroad, the reverse research can accelerate the narrowing of the gap, but at the same time due to the slow development of the industry as a whole, when a product is popular, and the sky are the product, when a popular product soon as there is a "cottage products. Like Apple is listed with 399 apples, appearance, exactly the same can be said is that there is no LOGO, this is the reverse unsuccessful the reverse get out timely, they can be refurbished.
In this era of the pursuit of profit, what fire do what the popular electronic products on the cottage of your product. Strictly speaking, PCB copy board is illegal law, after all, they do come out of the product is the people's effort or knowledge, with intellectual property rights, the fruits of other people's labor, if you get something for nothing is to steal the fruits of other people's labor. However, due to the electronic product has certain characteristics, slightly changed, not the same electronic products, you can only apply for a patent on the appearance and timely application for a patent for the circuit part, people order changes easily, so that fundamental nothing. Can do it is their preparedness people copy board.
Although this law is not perfect, but we still have to remind, the reverse work the purpose is to let our technology can improve faster, allow us to electronic technology to progress as soon as possible. Instead of letting us blind to clone people's electronic products, go to the infringement, the behavior that we are not in favor of these are. This way will only make the development of China's electronic technology more slowly, so that the people do not want to go to innovation, so that more backward of China's electronics industry, I hope the majority of electronic people develop a more creative and market electronic products.
