    How LED light work? Learn more about LED board

    Have you noticed that now more and more of our lighting is using led lighting.What is LED? Compared to the traditional light bulbs, LEDs have lower power consumption, longer lifetime and higher energy efficiency. In the PCB industry,when we say LED PCB, it refers to the pcb used for LED lighting, if you are looking for a suitable LED PCB for your lighting system, this article may bring you something. WHAT ARE LEDS COMPOSED OF?LED is an initial light-emitting diode that produces light when an electric current passes through. LEDs typically have negative and positive electrodes, which generate light in the visible light region.The LEDS are glued to the PCB by soldering process and have electrical connections for lighting.Since light-emitting diodes dissipate a lot of heat when they are in use, when you are designing LED, the metal core is usually the best choice for LED PCB, it is because that it dissipates heat more faster. Among them, the metal material aluminum is the most widely used

    The issue of substrate size changes during the manufacturing process of circuit boards

    The issue of substrate size changes during the manufacturing process of circuit boards

    Jan 17,2024

        ⑴ Differences in longitude and latitude directions cause changes in substrate size; Due to the lack of attention to fiber direction during shearing, shear stress remains in the substrate, and once released, it directly affects the shrinkage of the substrate size.  The copper foil on the surface of the substrate is etched off, which limits the variation of the substrate and results in dimensional changes when stress is relieved.  When brushing the board, excessive pressure is used, resulting in compressive and tensile stresses that cause deformation of the substrate.  The resin in the substrate is not completely cured, resulting in size changes.  Especially for multi-layer boards, poor storage conditions before lamination can cause moisture absorption on thin substrates or semi cured sheets, resulting in poor dimensional stability.  When the multi-layer board is pressed, excessive glue flow causes deformation of the glass cloth.  Solution:  ⑴ Determine the variation pattern of longi

    What is the difference between single-sided PCB and double-sided PCB

    What is the difference between single-sided PCB and double-sided PCB

    Jan 16,2024

        A single panel is on the most basic PCB, with parts concentrated on one side and wires concentrated on the other side. Because wires only appear on one side, we call this type of PCB a single side. Because single panels have many strict limitations in designing circuits (because they are only on one side, wiring cannot cross and must follow separate paths), only early circuits used such boards;  The wiring diagram of a single panel is mainly based on screen printing, which means printing a resist on the copper surface, etching it, then marking it with solder mask, and finally completing the part guide hole and shape through punching processing. In addition, some products produced in small quantities are photographed using photosensitive agents to form patterns.  Double sided boards have wiring on both sides. However, to use wires on both sides, there must be appropriate circuit connections between the two sides. The bridge between these circuits is called a guide hole (via). A guid

        Strictly speaking, PCB double-sided board is a very important type of PCB board in the circuit board. It has a wide range of uses, and it is easy to check whether a PCB board is a double-sided board. I believe that friends can fully grasp the understanding of single panels. Double panels are the extension of single panels, which means that the circuit of single panels is not enough to turn to the opposite side. Another important feature of PCB double-sided boards is that they have conductive holes.  Simply put, it means double-sided wiring, with lines on both sides! A summary is: A board with double-sided wiring is a double-sided board! Some friends may ask, for example, if a board has double-sided wiring but only one side has electronic components, is it a double-sided board or a single panel? The answer is obvious, such a board is a double-sided board, only parts are installed on the board of the double-sided board.  The advantages of manufacturing PCB double-sided boards are tha

        1: The process flow of selective welding includes: flux spraying, circuit board preheating, immersion welding, and drag welding. The flux coating process plays an important role in selective welding. When welding is heated and completed, the flux should have sufficient activity to prevent bridging and oxidation of the circuit board. The flux spraying is carried by an X/Y robotic arm above the flux nozzle on the circuit board, Spray flux onto the soldering position of the double-sided circuit board.  2: The most important aspect of microwave peak selection welding after reflow soldering is accurate flux spraying. Micro hole spraying will never contaminate the area outside the solder joint. Micro point spraying has a minimum flux point pattern diameter greater than 2mm, so the precision of the flux position deposited on the circuit board is ± 0.5mm to ensure that the flux always covers the soldered area.  3: The process characteristics of selective soldering can be understood by comp

      PCB sampling manufacturers generally refer to electronic products being sent to the circuit board manufacturer for processing into circuit boards for inspection after the engineer completes the PCB layout design. Due to being a newly developed product, many functions are still incomplete, and there are still many functional requirements for debugging. Only after debugging is qualified can batch production be carried out. If debugging is not qualified, it is necessary to modify, sample, and debug again, reducing many unnecessary troubles in the later stage.  With the increasingly fierce market competition, price issues have become a concern for buyers.

        1、 PCB circuit board process elements: 1. Excessive etching of copper foil. The electrolytic copper foil used in the market is generally single-sided galvanized (commonly known as ashing foil) and single-sided copper plating (commonly known as reddening foil). The common copper throwing is generally galvanized copper foil with a thickness of 70um or more, while reddening foil and ashing foil with a thickness of 18um or less have not shown batch copper throwing.  2. During the PCB process, local collisions occurred, causing the copper wire to detach from the substrate due to external mechanical forces. This defect manifests as poor positioning or directionality, with significant twisting of dropped copper wires or scratches/impact marks in the same direction. Peel off the defective copper wire and observe the rough surface of the copper foil. It can be seen that the color of the rough surface of the copper foil is normal, and there will be no side corrosion defects. The peeling stre

To avoid unnecessary waste, splicing treatment will be carried out before production on the circuit board production line without affecting the circuit board.  For PCB panel width ≤ 260mm~300mm, it varies depending on the production line. Because we may have many materials and each material gun corresponds to a module in our own processing equipment, if the splicing exceeds the range of the module, the processing speed will become very slow.

        Rigid flexible combination board is a method of laminating a flexible circuit substrate and a rigid circuit substrate together, which has both the rigidity of a hard board and the flexibility of a soft board. So, what issues should be paid attention to when making rigid flexible composite boards?  1. The design of rigid flexible composite plates usually changes from rigidity to flexibility, and then to rigidity. The rigid region generally has more layers than the flexible region, and the material is transferred from FR-4 to polyimide in the transition region. When intersection occurs, the overlap between rigid and flexible materials needs to keep the holes away from the transition area to maintain integrity. In addition, many rigid and flexible designs incorporate reinforcing materials such as stainless steel or aluminum to provide additional support for connectors and components.  2. Flexible circuits have bent wires that can affect wiring. Due to possible material stress, it is n
