OSP meaning Organic Solderability Preservatives, the Chinese name is Organic Solderability Film or Copper Protector. The core concept is to chemically generate a layer of organic film on the clean bare copper surface. This film has multiple properties such as resistance to oxidation, thermal shock, and humidity, and its main function is to protect the
PCB motherboard is the main board mounted components of the electronic board. It is the electronic components of the support body, but also electronic components electrically connected to the carrier. PCB motherboard design and layout directly affects the user’s ease of installation and use, so in the design and development process needs to be carefully
The solder pads, as the basic element of surface mount assembly, forms the core of the circuit board pad pattern, i.e. the combination of pads designed for a specific component type. It is not only a bridge for electrical connections, but also a key part of device fixation, which serves both functions. In the many
Soldermask is a polymer coated on the surface of the copper foil of a PCB. Its main function is to cover the surface of the copper foil and prevent oxidation of the copper wires, thus extending the service life of the board. It also prevents the flow of solder between neighboring pads during soldering, which
Surface mount PCB board, as the name suggests, is a technology where electronic components are mounted directly onto the surface of a PCB (Printed Circuit Board). Compared with traditional plug-in components, surface mount components have the advantages of small size, light weight and high reliability. This makes surface mount PCBs play a key role in
What is via？Through-hole, that is, in the copper cladding board drilling the required holes, it carries on the layer to layer conduction, used for electrical connections and fixed devices. Vias are a vital and indispensable part of PCB production. On a functional level, perforations are divided into two main categories:1.For the electrical connection between the
In the circuit board design process, PCB layers, or printed circuit board layers, refer to the division and stacking of different functional areas during the circuit board manufacturing process. Layers that are used more often in PCB design: mechanical mechanical layer Keepout layer Disable wiring layer Signal layer Signal layer Internal plane layer Internal power/ground
Blank pcb board, as circuit boards that do not yet have any of the necessary components to function properly, are an integral part of the electronics manufacturing field. Copper-plated blank circuit boards are often referred to as “copper-plated” boards, and when components are mounted on the board, the current flows freely and efficiently thanks to
Printed circuit board warpage refers to the phenomenon of PCB board bending, twisting or deformation during the working process.
