Common pcb solder mask material When selecting circuit board soldering materials, focus on the
For electronic equipment, work will produce a certain amount of heat, so that the internal temperature of the device rises rapidly, if the heat is not promptly distributed, the device will continue to heat up, the device will fail due to overheating, and the reliability of the electronic equipment will decline. Therefore, PCB Thermal treatment
Round PCB Board is a printed circuit board whose shape is circular. It is commonly used in consumer electronics, wearable devices, etc. Compared to traditional rectangular boards, round PCB board has the following significant advantages:High space utilization: For devices that require tight integration and full use of internal space, such as miniature sensors, wearable devices,
Whether it is the production or removal and replacement time, will be left on the circuit board some of the solder left behind the slag, to clean up these slag will not affect the use of the circuit board. So how to remove solder from circuit board? The first:Clean up the circuit board on the
In the PCB prototyping process, PCB rework is the process of repairing or modifying a PCB that has already been produced. When a sample PCB has design errors, soldering problems, component failures, or other non-conformities, the rework process can help fix these problems so that the PCB meets the design requirements and works properly. Steps
PCB reflow soldering hot plate is a process that involves re-melting a paste solder that has been pre-coated on a printed circuit board pad to make a mechanical and electrical connection between the solder ends or pins of a surface-mounted component and a printed board pad. PCB reflow hot plates, as a method of soldering
PCB voltage clearance, usually refers to the minimum distance between different conductive parts of the PCB (such as alignments, pads, vias, etc.). This distance is to prevent electrical short circuits and ensure electrical insulation and set up, and is affected by a variety of factors, including PCB operating voltage, dielectric strength of the insulating material,
PCB etching is the process of removing unwanted copper (cu) from a circuit board. When it is not needed, it is simply non-circuit copper that is removed from the board based on the PCB design and the desired circuit pattern is obtained. In other words, etching is like chiseling a circuit board; let’s say the
What is an AOI?AOI, or Automated Optical Inspection, is a device based on optical principles to detect common defects encountered in welding production. It is a newly emerging, but rapidly growing, new testing technology. When automatic inspection is performed, the machine automatically scans the PCB with a camera, captures images, compares the tested solder joints
FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) is a semiconductor device that consists of configurable logic blocks and interconnects that can be programmed to implement various digital circuits. A microcontroller is a single-chip microcomputer that integrates the main parts of a microcomputer on a single chip. Main components of FPGA Logic Block Logic blocks are the basic building
Lead solder is a traditional soldering material used in the production of electronic components, and its main component is lead. Lead-free solder is a new type of solder that is widely used without the addition of lead. lead vs lead free solder Leaded solder: This type of solder alloy contains lead. Common leaded solder alloys
Rigid Flex PCB Stackup refers to the combination of rigid PCBs and flexible PCBs to form a stack of circuit boards with a multi-layer structure.
