Where FPC is used?
The first time I opened a flip phone, I was struck by how many gold-colored ribbons were folded inside. Today, FPC applications reach almost
Alumina ceramic PCB
At some point, every power electronics designer hits the thermal wall of organic laminates. You can add copper pours and thermal vias,
Does residue on PCBA have any effect on reliability?
When a board passes ICT and functional test at the factory but glitches six months later in a humid climate, my first
The test methods of printed circuit board
A fully assembled board can look flawless under a microscope and still fail in the field because of a hidden open trace.
How Many Categories Do Metal-Based PCB Boards Have? What Are Their Characteristics
Anyone working on high-temperature electronic hardware is familiar with metal-based PCB, also widely known as MCPCB or metal core PCB. These boards
How to make PCB? What are the steps?
PCB manufacturing follows a clear, practical workflow from design validation to finished board production. Even minor process errors can cause circuit defects
How much do you know about PCB prototypes?
Drawing on over 12 years of collaboration with hundreds of hardware engineering teams, we’ve watched more than one product launch derailed by
Technologies in PCB Manufacturing
If you’ve ever opened up a smartphone or industrial controller, you’ve seen the work of PCB manufacturing technologies at play. These boards
Understanding PCB Materials: A Fabricator’s Practical Guide
Every electronic device relies on printed circuit boards to hold and connect onboard components. The physical stability, signal performance, and overall service
Why the Soldermask of PCB Is Really Important
A proper PCB soldermask coating solves many common circuit board issues that designers and manufacturers face every day. Its most basic job
Conformal Coating on PCB
Conformal coating on PCB is a thin, insulating polymer film applied to finished circuit boards. It closely adheres to board surfaces, components
An In-Depth Exploration of Printed Circuit Board Components
Modern electronic hardware cannot work stably without a complete printed circuit board. Every board relies on well-matched printed circuit board components to
How to Choose Trace Width and Spacing for Your PCB Design
If you’ve ever stared at a dense BGA breakout and wondered whether you could squeeze two traces between pads without blowing the
The thermal coeffiecent of aluminium substrate PCB
If you’ve ever reached for an aluminium substrate PCB to solve a thermal problem, you know the datasheet value alone doesn’t get
How to solder a wire to a circuit board?
There’s a quiet frustration in watching solder ball up on a pad and refuse to wet—a problem I ran into far too
IC Carrier PCB: The Bridge Between Silicon and System
The moment a chip package moves beyond a few dozen pins, the old metal lead frame stops being practical. That’s where the
