The printed circuit board assembly process has undergone revolutionary changes over the past three decades. What once relied ...

The result is that the entire board is much denser, and comments can be installed on both sides of the PC board, as seen in Figure 2 . Since the board does not require drilling for component leads ...

Recap: The Raspberry Pi 5 was launched in 2023, delivering more than twice the performance of the previous generation. The board was also instrumental in bringing a small, yet significant change in ...

Abstract: The inspection of solder paste stencils is a critical step in the production process of electronic devices to prevent issues caused by residual solder paste on the stencils, which can lead ...

While cheaper to use, uncoated stencils can have a detrimental effect on printing performance. In a recent study focused on optimizing solder paste transfer efficiency, the initial phase used ...

Accounting for the assembly process will put your design on the fast track. Thought-provoking questions keep coming my way, and then it’s down the old rabbit hole. So it goes something like this: “How ...

Developed through a close, collaborative relationship with Mycronic, PicoShot ® NC-6M has been beta-tested at customer sites, demonstrating proven performance and advantages over comparative material.

This innovative coating introduces a host of benefits designed to enhance stencil performance, extend its lifespan, and improve the overall quality of the SMT assembly process, thereby facilitating ...

Sometimes there are moments when an engineer has to use whatever materials they have to hand in order to complete the job on time. Such a situation arose at the RevSpace hacker space in Den Haag, ...
