A lot of times most entrepreneurs and manufacturers think the old ways of manufacturing electronics and printed circuit board manufacturing can be very intimidating because it is a slow process that can be prone to errors, and also expensive, which makes people hesitant to use it. Electronic turn-key assembly manufacturing wasn’t designed for small batch … Read more
The design rules for flex circuits are similar to the design rules for traditional PCBs. Traditional PCBs and flex circuits share some similarities in the manufacturing process as well. To start, the flexible circuit board material (typically copper clad Polyimide) is chosen, drilled, plated, photo-imaged, implement and imprinted just like the conservative PCB process. Next, both … Read more
What Do You Actually Need to Make a Printed Circuit Board? Printed circuit boards are in all manner of electronics. If it has computing power, then it is likely to include a printed circuit board. What is a PCB actually made of, and what components does it include? Surprisingly, PCBs are not too complicated. The … Read more
Understanding Silk Screen Technology in Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Adding the silkscreen layer onto a printed circuit board is the final step in the fabrication process. Silkscreen is a layer that uses ink traces to identify all the PCB board components, test points, parts of the PCB, warning symbols, logos and marks etc. These shapes, … Read more
There are a few fundamental constructions of flexible circuit boards, but there is an important variation between the different types of conditions in their production. Following is an evaluation of the most general types of flexible circuit board constructions. Single-sided Flexible Circuits Single-sided flexible circuits contain a single conductor layer prepared of either a metal or … Read more
When it comes to building reliable and high-performance Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), two primary component-mounting methods dominate the industry: Through-Hole Technology (THT) and Surface Mount Technology (SMT). Each method has its advantages, disadvantages, and ideal use cases depending on the application. At Yun Industrial Acme PCB Assembly, we specialize in both techniques—because the right choice … Read more
