We will be discussing the issue of PCB recycling, if it’s even possible, how it is done and what can we do as electronics design engineers to create more recyclable PCBs. When we say PCB we are meaning a PCB without any components on it. Most electronic devices found out there have their components sitting … Read moreIs it Possible to Recycle Your Unused Printed Circuit Boards?
Yun Industrial specializes in Surface-Mount Technology (SMT) to apply components to the surface of PCBs. Keep in mind, you will need to do your homework before you move forward in switching an existing electronic product design from through-hole technology to surface mount technology (SMT). Surface-mount technology (SMT) is a method for producing electronic circuits in which the components … Read moreProviding Surface-Mount Technology
What Are PCB Traces? If you’ve ever held a printed circuit board in your hand, you probably noticed a tiny network of lines running across the motherboard, like lots of little roads. What are these roads and what do they do? Those lines are called “traces,” and they perform an extremely important task for the … Read moreWhat Are PCB Traces?
Why You May Not Want to Work with a Big PCB Assembly Vendor When it comes to hiring parts and assembly vendors, bigger is only better until you need a custom project. You might think that hiring the biggest PCB assembly service provider will mean greater efficiency, but it also means less flexibility. These massive … Read moreWhy You May Not Want to Work with a Big PCB Assembly Vendor
Full Turn Key vs. Partial Turn Key Printed Circuit Board Services You are looking for a PCB assembly provider for a new product. When you call up a printed circuit board manufacturer, the first question you are likely to get is, “Do you want full turn key service or partial turn key service?” What is … Read moreFull Turn Key vs. Partial Turn Key Printed Circuit Board Services
Why Through-Hole Assembly Still Matters Before the 1960s, the through-hole assembly process for mounting components onto printed circuit boards was the only game in town. It was labor-intensive and required a lot of space, but it was the only option. That all changed with the rise of surface mount technology (SMT), which allows for components … Read moreWhy Through-Hole Assembly Still Matters
Benefits of PCB Manufacturing and Turn-key Assembly California Turnkey PCB assembly has made work easier. The convenience of this approach over the traditional options can be seen in the benefits outlined below. 1) Reduced costs By taking the PCB manufacturing and turn-key assembly approach it has reduced the overall cost of production drastically. Most of … Read moreBenefits of Turnkey PCB Manufacturing and Assembly in the USA
Flexible Circuits are frequently used as connectors in different applications where flexibility, space savings, or construction constraints limit the service capability of rigid circuit boards or hand wiring. In LCD fabrication, glass is used as a substrate. If thin, flexible plastic or metal foil is used as the substrate instead, the whole system can be … Read moreApplications of Flexible Circuits
What the Heck Is Your PCB Vendor Talking About? – Common Terms for PCB Assembly Every industry has its established lingo, which helps its members communicate more efficiently. If you are on the outside looking in, however, it can seem like they are speaking a foreign tongue. This becomes a problem when you need to … Read moreCommon Terms for PCB Assembly Services
When creating “mixed technology” printed circuit board (pcb) assemblies, once all the surface mount technology (SMT) devices are in place, there are a variety of approaches available for attaching the plated through hole (PTH) components. Traditionally these have included either an operator soldering PTH devices by hand, or utilizing automated equipment known as a wave … Read moreElectronic SMT Assembly Soldering
