A printed circuit board, or PCB, is an integral part of electronics. A PCB is basically a substrate (normally made from glass epoxy) with conductive traces etched from copper sheets. These copper traces facilitate flow of electricity. Electronic components are soldered along this conductive pathway thus controlling the flow and quantity of electricity needed.
A cleanroom is a working environment where concentration of airborne particles and contamination is controlled to maintain the specified limits. A cleanroom working environment is required at manufacturing units of semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, manufacturing centers,
SMT (Surface Mount Technology) is a packaging technology in electronics that mounts electronic components on the surface of a Printed Circuit Board / Printed Wiring Board (PCB / PWB) instead of inserting them through holes of the board.
There are many soldering process available for surface mount components but none is perfect for all applications. All SMD soldering processes have technical concerns and there are ways to resolve those concerns.
Many electronic components are not yet available in SMD for surface mounting. Due to this reason, SMT must accommodate some through-hole components. Therefore the term “Surface Mount Assembly is incomplete”. Surface mount components, active and passive,
There are many reflow soldering methods and each method has advantages and disadvantages. Equipment cost, maintenance cost and yield are some of the leading decision factors. The most widely used reflow processes in electronics are: vapor phase and infrared.
There are two classes of electronic components – Active and Passive. Both these electronic components are different from each other. This article explains all about active and passive electronic components and the difference between the two. What are Active Electronic Components?
The YS24 together with the YS24X pick and place machines are the most flexible, space-efficient machine on the market, offering unmatched capability. It is the solution for customers requiring many feeding positions, large board sizes, large component range and significant output within a very small floor space.
