    May 23, 2021 A good PCBA training
    May 15, 2021, in order to let our newly joined our company staffs quickly familiarize themselves with the products and better serve every customer.  Mainly explain in detail about PCBA product identification. The engineer conducts a detailed analysis with his 10 years of experience in the PCBA industry and a series of PCBA products that the company has done. How should we identify PCBA? First of all, we need to understand the role of components on the PCBA board. For example: On the PCB, character“R” represents resistance, and its main function is to step down and divide the voltage. Character “C” represents the capacitance, and its main function on the PCB is to reduce noise and stabilize the voltage. The most important thing is the chip (IC), which is the most important part of the entire PCB, equivalent to the human brain. It integrates a variety of electronic components on the PCB to achieve a specific function of the circuit module. Its function is calculation and storage. How to ensure the quality of our products? The engineer takes the bluetooth audio PCBA as an example: in order to increase the service life of the product. PCBA is a key part of the electronic product. We know that the audio is in a long-term vibration state. This will have a great impact on our chips for a long time, so that the life of the electronic products will be shortened. We can dispensing the chip to help the chip be fixed in board. If you want to know more details, please contact us! Tel: +86 0755 2322 6243 EXT 801.

  • Determinants of solder-ability
    May 17, 2021 Determinants of solder-ability
    In the process of PCBA processing, solder-ability directly affects the quality of the electronic product. Some inadvertent small problems can affect the solder-ability of the product. In order to avoid such problems, we must understand first. PCBA solder-ability is actually the PCBA soldering effect, which can be summarized as 4 major factors: 1. The quality of the PCB The manufacturing process and size design of the PCB all affect the solder-ability of the PCBA. For example, if the PCB size is too small, the soldering will be difficult to control and mutual interference will occur, so the design directly affects the soldering. How to avoid controlling the quality of incoming materials and ensuring that the supplier has done solder-ability testing to reduce this risk. 2. Solder paste The factor of solder paste also plays a important role in the solder-ability of PCBA. Pay attention to the storage time of solder paste and defrost it after opening. After thawing, stir the solder paste again. It is best to use it up on the same day and change the solder paste frequently. Steel mesh. 3. Components The components are assembled on the PCB. If you don’t pay attention to the storage time and environment of the components, and you don’t pay attention to avoiding damp and oxidation, it will be easy to short-circuit and crack during soldering. Also, it is to control incoming materials to test its solder-ability to ensure production. When the problem occurs. 4. Production environment The temperature and humidity of the workshop cannot be too high or too low. High humidity will affect the solder paste to cause bridging during reflow, and excessive water absorption will cause poor aggregation. Low humidity directly affects the flux evaporation rate, causing the solder paste to dry out and affect soldering. The high temperature reduces the viscosity of the solder paste and can also cause additional oxidation of the solder and affect the solder-ability. Low temperature can cause bad printing behavior, so the temperature and humidity of the environment are also extremely important. Pay attention to the temperature and humidity of the workshop is also the key point that can determine the solder-ability factor. Controlling these four determinants of weld-ability in the production process can effectively improve PCBA product quality.

  • What is ENIG?
    April 23, 2021 What is ENIG?
    ENIG full name is Electroless Nickel/Immersion Gold(some people call Chemical nickel gold, immersion nickel gold and soft gold) It is a continuous layer of nickel-gold alloy deposited on the surface of copper through redox reaction, a process of applying solderable coating on the bare copper surface of the PCB, which makes the PCB have better electrical conductivity and prolongs the service life of the PCB. Sometimes the cost of this surface treatment process will account for 20% of the cost of the printed circuit board. In actual production applications, 90% of the gold plates use the process of ENIG. After this process, the color of the PCB surface is stable to golden yellow,the brightness is good, the plating layer is flat, and the thickness of the surface treatment as the pad is generally 0.03µ - 0.08 µ. In the same way, gold finger PCB is made. Compared with the Gold Plating process, the gold finger of ENIG is not wear-resistant.If you do not often plug and unplug the Golden finger , you can also choose ENIG Process. At present, about 10%-20% of PCBs surface treatment use ENIG. The first choice for the button PCB, suitable for the edge connection area of the router shell and the electrical contact area for elastic connection of the chip processor, high-precision PCB with bonding IC, or BGA design. (1)Functions: ENIG makes the welding surface flat and can be well welded. Compared with Gold Plating, it has a lower cost and can prevent corrosion on the exposed copper surface. (2)Advantage: a). PCB surface is flat, good coplanarity b). The solderability is good, and the soldering of the components is stronger (over reflow soldering will not affect its solderability) c). It is not easy to be oxidized and anti-corrosion, so that the PCB can be stored for a longer time (3)Disadvantage: a). Compared with Gold Plating, the ENIG process is not wear-resistant b). Compared with the OSP process, the ENIG process is complicated General ENIG process: Acid cleaning→micro-etching→pre-dipping→activation→electroless nickel plating→chemical immersion gold. Comparison of ENIG and Plating Gold: Outward Appearance Solderability Antioxidant capacity Solder mask Binding force Plating Gold Bias towards white ★★ ★★★ ★★ ENIG Bias towards yellow ★★★ ★★★★★★ ★★★

  • How to inspect PCBA incoming materials?
    March 25, 2021 How to inspect PCBA incoming materials?
    The empty PCB board assembles various electronic components on the circuit board through SMT, and then forms PCBA through DIP plug-in. Among them, the incoming components are in the SMT inspection process. We need to check whether the labels and model specifications of the incoming materials are consistent. Use a magnifying glass to check whether the physical model specifications and silk-screen logos are consistent. Check the structure and shape after the model and silk-screen are no problem. It is consistent with the drawings and samples in the acknowledgment. Refer to the drawings and use a vernier to measure the size of the chip capacitors to meet the requirements. We need to use a digital bridge (LCR METER) tester to select DCR for testing. The capacity should be within the required range when measuring the capacity, and the loss value should be recorded while measuring the capacity, and the value should be within the required range. After passing the above inspections, the chip capacitors can be placed in the machine for placement, the components are soldered on the PCB board through the placement machine (SMT), manual welding (DIP, AI) and other equipment methods. A wide variety of chip capacitors is just one of them. It is a component that can store charges, and the same component has different dielectric specifications, and different specifications have different characteristics and uses. There are also diodes, tertiary tubes, and stickers. Chip resistors, various IC chips, relays, transformers, etc., they play their due role on the PCBA.
