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
In wave soldering, the main process materials used are flux and solder. 1. The application of flux can remove oxides from the welding surface, prevent reoxidation of the solder and welding surface during welding, reduce the surface tension of the solder, and help transfer heat to the welding area. Flux plays a crucial role in controlling welding quality. At present, the most commonly used flux for wave soldering is non cleaning flux, and there are the following requirements when selecting flux: (1) The melting point is lower than that of solder; (2) The infiltration diffusion speed is faster than that of melted solder; (3) The viscosity and specific gravity are smaller than those of solder; (4) Stable storage at room temperature. 2. Quality control of solder Tin lead solder continuously oxidizes at high temperatures (250 ℃), causing a continuous decrease in the tin content of the tin lead solder in the tin pot, deviating from the eutectic point, resulting in poor flowability
1. Pad design (1) When designing plug-in component pads, the pad size should be designed appropriately. If the solder pad is too large, the solder spreading area is large, and the formed solder joints are not full, while the surface tension of the smaller solder pad copper foil is too small, and the formed solder joints are non wetting solder joints. The fit gap between the aperture and the component lead is too large, which is prone to false soldering. When the aperture is 0.05-0.2mm wider than the lead and the diameter of the solder pad is 2-2.5 times the aperture, it is an ideal welding condition. (2) When designing solder pads for SMD components, the following points should be considered: in order to eliminate the "shadow effect" as much as possible, the solder end or pin of SMD should be facing the direction of the tin flow to facilitate contact with the tin flow and reduce false soldering and solder leakage. For smaller components, they should not be placed behind larger co
In recent years, with the continuous development of electronic products and the further advancement of intelligence, the design of printed circuit boards (PCBs) has become increasingly important. The design of PCB multilayer structure occupies a core position in modern electronic equipment, and its rationality directly affects the performance and reliability of electronic products. Firstly, let's take a look at the design principles of a multi layer PCB structure. Firstly, the selection of layers is very important. The more layers there are, the higher the complexity of signal transmission, so a balance between circuit complexity, electromagnetic interference, and cost needs to be considered in the design. Secondly, in the design of PCB multilayer boards, the signal circuits of each layer should be reasonably arranged. There should be sufficient spacing between different signal lines to avoid mutual interference. In order to improve the speed of signal transmission and reduce ele
With the continuous development of technology, LED circuit boards are playing an increasingly important role in the lighting industry. They not only provide high brightness lighting effects, but also have advantages such as energy conservation, environmental protection, and long service life. In order to further promote the development of LED light circuit boards, new design trends are constantly emerging. Today, the editor will delve into the current 5 cutting-edge LED light board PCB design trends and look forward to the possibilities that technology can bring to the future.

Firstly, the first step in the production of new energy vehicle PCB boards is the design of circuit board drawings. The designer draws the layout and circuit connection drawings of the circuit board based on the functional and dimensional requirements of the electronic equipment of the new energy vehicle. The accuracy and rationality of design drawings are crucial for the subsequent manufacturing process. Next is the plate making and electroplating of the circuit board. Plate making is the process of transferring design drawings to photoresist through lithography technology, and then gradually exposing the copper layer through chemical corrosion to form the required circuit lines. Next, the copper plate is immersed in an electroplating bath, and through the action of current, a layer of copper foil is formed on the circuit line to enhance conductivity and durability. The third key step is drilling and deburring. In this step, the high-speed drilling on the small lathe drills n
1. Design and Planning: Based on the functions and requirements of the sensor, the manufacturer designs and plans to determine the required type and size of the circuit board. 2. Material selection: According to design requirements, select suitable circuit board materials, usually using FR-4 glass fiber composite material. 3. Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Manufacturing: Using printing technology to create circuit patterns on a substrate. This process involves processing the copper foil layer into the desired circuit shape, covering the surface of the circuit board with photosensitive adhesive, and using ultraviolet radiation to define the circuit pattern. 4. Chemical etching: By chemical etching, unnecessary copper foil layers are peeled off, leaving only the required wiring. This ensures that the circuit will not short-circuit. 5. Punching: Drill holes in the locations where components need to be installed to facilitate the installation of electronic components. 6. Assembly of
Industrial circuit board damage usually refers to a component being damaged, possibly a chip, a capacitor, or even a small resistor. The repair process involves identifying and replacing the damaged component. 1. Resistors with small resistance values and capacitors with large capacity are prone to damage A resistor with a small resistance value is often used in power supply lines to limit current, which acts as a fuse. If the current is too high, it will first burn out. In addition, many ground capacitors are used in power supply lines for filtering, and their size and capacity are generally large. If the voltage or current is unstable, the capacitors will break down and cause leakage. 2. Fault characteristics and maintenance of capacitor damage The failure caused by capacitor damage is the highest in electronic devices, with electrolytic capacitor damage being the most common. Capacitor damage is manifested as: 1. reduced capacity; 2. Complete loss of capacity; 3. Leakage; 4
(1) There should be a reasonable direction: such as input/output, AC/DC, strong/weak signals, high-frequency/low-frequency, high-voltage/low-voltage, etc. Their direction should be linear (or separated) and should not blend with each other. Its purpose is to prevent mutual interference. (2) Choose a good grounding point: For example, the multiple ground wires of the forward amplifier should be merged before connecting to the main ground, etc. (3) Reasonably arrange the power filter/decoupling capacitors: Generally, only a few power filter/decoupling capacitors are drawn in the schematic diagram, but they are not indicated where they should be connected. In fact, these capacitors are designed for switching devices or other components that require filtering/decoupling, and they should be arranged as close to these components as possible. (4) There is a particular emphasis on lines: if conditions permit, lines that are wide will never be thin; High voltage and high-frequency lines
The through hole plays a role in connecting and conducting circuits, and the development of the electronics industry has promoted the development of PCBs, resulting in the emergence of plug hole technology. In order to meet the customer's requirements, the process of conducting and plugging holes can be described as diverse, with a particularly long process flow and difficult process control. So, how is the process of plugging through holes in PCB circuit boards achieved? Let's take a look together with the editor: 1、 Plug hole process after hot air leveling This process flow is: board surface resistance welding → HAL → plug hole → curing. Production is carried out using a non plug hole process, and after hot air leveling, aluminum mesh plates or ink blocking nets are used to complete the plug holes of all fortresses. Plug ink can be used as photosensitive ink or thermosetting ink. This process flow can ensure that the guide hole does not fall off oil after hot air leveling, but
