Conformal Coating vs Potting & Encapsulation – The Best Method
Nov 7, 2022|Manufacturing Excellence, Technological Advancements and Materials
In the PCBA world, the type of coatings that protect your electronics boards can make a big difference. Conformal coating adds a protective, non-conductive dielectric layer that prevents all sorts of damages and dangers including moisture, corrosion, fungal growth, and salt spray. Conformal coating is extremely thin, and the lightweight coating has almost no effect on the PCBA—it doesn’t stress...
Surface Mount vs Through-Hole
Aug 12, 2022|Technological Advancements and Materials
Surface Mount (SMT) and Through-Hole Technology (THT) are the two fundamental types of constituents utilized in printed circuit boards (PCBs). Surface Mount is used more frequently than Through Hole since it is more reliable and less expensive. Nevertheless, Through Hole Technology provides distinct advantages that ensure its continued relevance for the conceivable future. Table of Contents1 Pros and Cons Side by...
7 Circuit Board Troubleshooting Techniques
Aug 10, 2022|PCB Maintenance, Repair and Troubleshooting
Circuit boards, often called PCBs (printed circuit boards), are a vital component of almost every electronic system, and they can cause massive malfunctions with a single problem. A majority of PCB issues can be attributed to human error in the manufacturing process, even as rare as that is. Unfortunately, there is more room for human error due to the preciseness required...
